WOW, that rig is going to be SWEET! Curious, did you find a new plastic housing for that ThermoQuad? That's one carb I'm not a fan of.
Who are you using for dynoing the engine?
ThermoQuads get a bad reputation, because a lot of people don’t care for them properly, in my opinion. To me, they’re as easy to work on, and work just as well, as a Quadrajet. The phenolic bowl was immaculate, but I did have to take three of them to make one good carb. This SOB should scream.
The Dyno Shop is the name of the place, in Nampa, ID, that rebuilt the engine for me. Frank Quinlan is the most respected engine builder in the Treasure Valley, an old drag racer who’s forgotten more than I could ever learn. John McLean, another Mopar drag racer, redid the LF727.
