Even if the linkage binded out and lifted the front of the carb up to make a good size vacuum leak ? I guess it could have been before NHRA started checking for the leaks. Years later he showed me a 280 hydro with a 273 2 barrel that had just set the indoor Orange Bowl regatta record, same deal. Im not putting the man down , I loved being around him and hearing his old stories, he was one sharp cookie. To me he was sort of drag racings Smokey Yunick, way ahead of his time
