Very interesting. It sure looks like a winner to me. Whoever that is, he's no flathead "guru", but the results sure look good.

He might get it to run a bit better by losing the restrictive little air cleaner.

Right on tubman! Someone gave me a new "chrome pot" like that one and the paper element chocked the engine. Took it off and put the one I have had since 1960 with a screen element on it and wow, the engine came back to life and ran great.

After this video, I'd buy one in a heartbeat. I'll even bet that the "stumble" he's so concerned about will go away if he would get rid of the crappy "racing" air cleaner.

I don't get you guys knocking an alternative source that has been proven good. I like Charlie as much (or even more) than the rest of you, but as much as we hate to admit it, time marches on.

Yes I follow Lee although he is a "rodder". That was interesting. He's a younger generation to us but we need these guys to keep flatheads alive even if it is in a form that is "not as pure".
