Default Re: old school tunnel ram and carbs question



If that is a Motion car it really makes me question some of the mystique and values floated around for them.

Looks like something the typical backyard guy would do with some rubber fuel line.

Not impressed.

The photo wasn't really meant to impress anyone Dirty, it was just shown as a reference to a TR setup---Those rubber fuel lines are industry approved gas lines that would have been used in a line splice especially were vibration and stress were a factor-----A lot of Motion photos weren't staged ie guys in white coveralls installing engines with scrubbed clean equipment--the photos were taken as the work was being done--that's what I always thought was so about those old photos of speed shops --Anyway, I'm not here to defend anyones table manners or lack of but you should be impressed by Motion and other HI-PO shops that built cars that set records and ruled the streets in a time were grease under your fingernails was just part of the job-------------
