Keith,

The car wasn't dormant for two years, just not run a lot as I understand it. I don't know who Fred used on the carbs, he initially had them rebuilt at Holley when the car was built. I would havesome go through the whole drivetrain on that chassis dyno and get a new baseline established. It also has about $75K in it, so you got it at a good price.

Clutch pedal: That's how thay are on Contemporary's, my 289FIA was that way, you may be able to adjust the release point, but all the pedals are hung by the same brakcket, maybe shorten the pedal?
