Enjoyed riding in the Heapwagen again this weekend........had a great time!!!!


It was fun cruzing around with you! You gotta love the power of a big type 1. Which will be a bigger type 1 in a couple months ;)


I definitely like the power.......I just hope it doesn't make me want to get into performance engines!



I can see it now, chuck's notch with a 2332...sitting in the storage unit undriven for another 2-3 years, hehehe

The WOW factor would be when it smoked your notch's ass. w:pw Bring your EFI Type 4 powered notch out here and race a no-"WOW factor" carbed oval and you'll see some real power ;)

Well, if you never tuned/jetted a set of carbs before, I can tell you its part science, part art, and part black magic, lol. Trust me, plenty of thought goes into it... ;)
