Leakdown

Thanks. I just ran my old motor with a two gauge tester. Quite a variation, best was 2%, worst was 8%. I can hear the air from the valve cover breather, while the headers and carb are quiet, so I guess it is ring seal that is responsible for the variation.

Hey Vic,

Did you tell me that Billy Nees did your headers? I imagine that he needs the car to build them?

Thanks,
Bill H.
