Drove my car for the first time today with the 3 carb good setup & rebuilt 
engine, runs good. when you let off the gas it comes back to idle too slowly 
though. i think the linkage returns quick enough but the engine rpm's come down 
too slow? the guy helping me with it thought maybe something to do with the 
racier cam but i wouldn't think that has anything to do with it. then again i 
don't know a whole lot. i also have the temp. compensators and bypass valves 
plugged off by the way.
seen a few posts in the past about alum. flywheels and driveability. doesn't 
seem to take any more gas to get going from a deadstop to me. engine revs 
QUICKLY. sitting still and revved it, was over 6000 in a heartbeat. i think if 
i missed a gear and mashed the throttle it would be curtains real quick for the 
engine. 

elgin cam (little racier than the tr5 cam but not a bad idle)
alum flywheel
16" elec. fan
spacer kit to get rid of fan extension
9.8 compression + or -
headers
3 strombergs
