Todd,how fine is the screen on those vel stacks?Do you race it with the screens on.Mine have what look like larger holes and they really restrict the air on the dyno.FWIW,Tom

Freshened up engine in my 66. Took all the billet and chrome off since I was tired of looking like all the other cars at the track. Went back old school.
