If you crutch it for the street- are you really going to be happy in a competitive environment? Can you run propane for the street or use a different carb and run EXX ?

Even on junk- the labour kills me.

When it comes to heads and cams- I'm firmly in the camp that the newer the better. If you want double humps I think TFS still makes an alum version and powder coat the colour of choice. As far as porting- depends on how good or bad the original canvas is, there no doubt is low hanging fruit the oem ...

Best part is, most were almost smog exempt. No smog pump, depending on year no egr. They did have a catalytic converter an...
