Well after 10 years? i pulled my carbs off for a rebuild. I just could not get the car to run with out spraying fuel. Ordered rebuild kits from e bay. I wanted to get them from CB performance but they wanted 18$ to ship. No thanks.

Drag racing will allow you to get away with a smaller sump -- the bigger sump is needed for cruising for temp control and road racing to keep some oil around the pickup

Tip:app. for Deep sump,, for a pick-up tube extension I use a old aluminum empi adjustable/spring loaded tube(junk anyhow) cut to fit
they are perfect for this 8) 8) 8) 8) seal/attach with JB weld,no more running to the hardware for conduit that don't fit right :lol:
hope this help someone? ,I've spent hours looking for the right size tubing before :roll:
