I know it's been said here before, but Mike is just great to deal with.
He built a 66 Tripower for me, and I could not be more pleased. I used my 66 aluminum manifold, and sent it to him, and he did the rest. He has also been more then helpful with all the questions I had after the install, like tuning, choke, linkage, etc.
It Looks awesome, I also received it about 3 weeks earlier then he said. Even though I waited till after the season to install it.
Again, a real asset to our hobby.
Kinda a dream come true for me....
See for yourself....

I had dealings with Mike too and I would recommend his services to anyone. I bought a 66 tri-power to put on my 66 2+2 and it needed some serious rebuild parts and he helped me out. Only problem was neither of us could figure out why my end carbs kept leaking fuel. The bowls would fill up and fuel would leak through the venturi's. I used all kinds of seats and needles and floats to no avail. I got so frustrated that I bent the floats all the way down so only a little fuel should have been in the bowl, but it still filled up and leaked. I even used a fuel pressure restrictor and it still made no difference. He offered to rebuild the thing for me, but I gave up and bought an Edelbrock carb and intake. He could have probably made it work for me, but I just got fed up with playing around with it.

I've known Mike for many years and he's done work for me several times. He does first class work and you can trust what he tells you. He also has a CD available that will provide more information than you need aout tripowers for about $20. One of the good guys.
