Ol Ron

What did you use for the crank shaft pulley?
I always enjoy your posts.

Thanks

Its hard to tell from the photos how the runners are setup on the intake manifold but with the carbs mounted to the back it seems like the front cylinders might run somewhat lean when the blower's boost is vented at cruising throttle settings. Have you noticed that happening?
