I drive very relaxed, lots of short trips though since it was new to me. We will see in the spring how it responds to good compression on all cylinders. The carb is a correct coded NOS unit that we went through with fresh seals. I’d say I’m pretty confident that I had the carb and distributor in an excellent state of tune. Transmission seems to function well with no sign of slippage but only two gears obviously hampers performance and economy.
