    So the community here is second choice, when it comes to technical expertise? You never really needed us and now you are talking about luv?? :)

    Never mind, we are number one when it is about bullshitting :)
    (I just sometimes wish I could contribute a little more, but not being a native speaker, I want to avoid dangerous grounds)

    IMG_0921.JPG Is this the pic your talking about Tom? If so, thats my 350 in my '71 GS, thats the vacuum motor for the cruise, I removed the ball chain, its not long enough to reach the carb with the SP3.

    Yes, that's the one I was talking about Mark. Although I missed the engine being a 350 & iron heads as Jim pointed out, for some reason it looked all to familiar to me. Now I know because I saw it when I was in Ohio.
