I'm going to need to get some replacement floor pans as well. I have had at least three separate people tell me to go with KF Vintage. One was a contractor that had done previous classic car restorations, another was a vendor at the Carlisle Import & Performance Nationals, and another was a Z mechanic. Needless to say, that's who I will be going with when I finally pull the trigger and decide to replace my floors. Mine were filled in with old Maxwell House coffee cans and lots of filler by a previous owner that did not want to weld. I was planning on replacing my floors as this winter's project, but I may need to put it off due to the persistent Gov't shutdown. Not having a current and reliable source of income may stall my plans somewhat.

The needles are adjust correctly, one takes a straight edge along the piston to make sure the shoulder on the needles are correct. There is a lot of history here, had a very difficult time getting the needles and floats adjusted right in the bloat bowls, that took an enormous amount of time. I have a tach on the coil, next is to turn the nuts to go on the rich side, then rock back and forth to lean, looking for max rpms, at least thats what I understand. I've been running fuel out of a 5 gallon gas can, the excess goes back into the main tank, ran my gas can out of fuel. The fuel tank is somewhat rusty, need to find if it is usable or now.
