Default Dick Boneske restored carbs

Dick rebuilt/refinished my 65 tripower unit and did a fantastic job. He was very helpful during the process answering all my questions and concerns. I would highly recommend him if you need a tripower rebuilt. I still have to do a few things such as painting the top of the carb studs, replacing the accelerator cable etc.

Dick is the best.

Knows his Tri-Powers as well as or better than anyone in the business, his work is definitely top notch.

Did a set of '64 carbs for me a few years back, they look perfect. Planning to run them on a '64 421 HO, I can't wait to try them out. My carbs are pictured below sitting on one of Dick's '65 intakes for linkage setup and adjustment before shipment.

Now you can run the correct 64 "Curved Linkage" system that Dick offers, and be correct for 64, B-Man.

Bought the parts I needed to convert to the '64 curved linkage a few weeks ago from Dick, along with a few other '64-correct parts to help dress out the engine.

Dick also did my '66 setup that I am using on my 428. They look great and work awesome! Dick helped to re-jet them for this application and also helped me when I was having trouble getting it to idle. Turned out to be vacuum leak, not the carbs. Highly recommend his services.
