The twins showed up to watch me fill water jugs. Then went for a little hike.
@Rustynuts is that a two barrel manifold with a Holley 2bbl? All kinds of mods there. Alternator, HEI distributor, K&N filter.
Edelbrock coffee eh?
Your engine looks really neat.

It’s a single barrel manifold with a 32/36 Weber and adapter. I am really happy with the Weber, the hei is a new addition, hopefully it’s worth the hours I have in the modifications I put in it. My stock dizzy is completely shot, but I may try sending it out for a full rebuild at some point. I’m keeping a shelf of “put it back stock” parts.

I also polished the combustion chambers in the head and ported the intake and exhaust manifold to the block. Not sure if will make much of a difference but she should breath easier. My grandpa used to swear by the polish bit for flatheads. That man could squeak out horsepower out of anything!
Forget about the engine, just hook up that black dog to the Willys.

Right? The last time I gave him a ride in the cab, his rear stuck out the passenger window and both of our heads were sticking out driver’s window! The neighborhood got a pretty good laugh out of it!
Silver finish. The bolts and washers are yellow.

Beautiful country. Keep the calendar photo contest in mind as you take pictures out there!

Will do. Not much on pics here, but I will try. We just love to be out there and the willys makes it that much more fun.
