    Tony nailed it. Too bad we aren't talking about a smokin' hot woman, eh?

    Hmmm may just check out that Linn Cove Viaduct. I do have in my bucket list running my Honda S2000 on the TOTD. I rode it in 79 or 80
    with what was my brand new in 1978 Triumph Bonneville, exhausting to say the least.

    If I can get back to health that is. So much to do and so little time.

    No, thanks. I prefer my crabs from the ocean, cooked and with butter.

    A real old pic, a friend of BIL, half in the bag. I did some Quadrajet carb and distributor curve work for him. The old I put a cam in and it idles too rich because of insufficient vacuum to hold the metering rods down in jets. You had to play with metering rod spring tension.

    You ran into that with Holley carbs power valves too. Sometimes you had to drill holes in the primary metering plates to keep only ~ .040" of the idle transfer slots showing beneath throttle plates or they dribble too much fuel in. Idle transfer slots compensated for slight lag of accelerator pump fuel getting into intake. Great memories.

    I don't think so. Might have been 350 or 400.

    One of my holy grails of the classic car world would be a 1957 Nomad with a 409.

    First flown in 1947, the B-45 has the distinction of being the first operational jet bomber to enter service with the United States Air Force, as well as being the first multi-engine jet bomber in the world to be refueled in midair. The Tornado saw action during the Korean War, performing conventional bombing and aerial reconnaissance missions.
