My good friends Cuda on Nick's Garage

[Brads70]

I helped install this monster. My first Hemi install. Neil started tunning it but didn't have enough time with it or parts.

Saw that a few days ago...Nick is da man !

Not the most exciting video to watch, but Nick seems like one heck of a wizard with Hemi's

Who built the Hemi in the first place ? Please don't say FHO...

[jimynick]

LOL, I watched this this afternoon and emailed Brad as to if it was his buddy's car. Not only was it, but I'd been to the guy's shop when I dropped off some doors for Brad's truck! It's a small world out there boys.

B&W built it. BIG money To say Mike was not very happy would be an understatement. But he's pretty pleased now.

Relieved to hear it didn't come from FHO.....I'm currently waiting for Tim to finish up a 426 for the 71 Cuda convertible I'm building...I don't want any issues....mind you, I have a 340 at Beatty & Woods right now if that's who you're referring too

Mike's smile said it all as he watched and rode with the engine tuned up correctly.   Pretty amazing improvement.

This feels like a lane question, but I gotta ask - where did Mike get that console next to his shifter?  That one looks like it fits well.

Not sure? I can ask him next time I see him.

You won't have any trouble with Tim's work at FHO. It will be perfect. He's not just a machinist, his work is art, you'll feel guilty getting it oily.

Oh, I'm aware of that, this will be the third FHO Hemi I've installed ....I just hope hurricane Ian didn't reach his new shop. I dropped the motor off Aug. 2021 and I'm still waiting...

Just watched it - sounds like it just some carb issues.

Warren, Mike just texted me this link for the console. @Dakota

Yes that was the main issue, Mike said they didn't show the day before where they had both carbs off and gone thru. It wasn't a half hour fix, TV magic

[torredcuda]

Nick mentioned he had to rebuild the rear carb and both had too high float levels.

Thanks so much for tracking that down for me @Brads70 

I found the same model on the US eBay site (see link below).   This one has free shipping and avoids a customs charge too.  I know spotting this console was a little weird among all that Hemi awesomeness, but I've grown tired of jamming water bottles between the tranny hump and seat, along with trying to keep my phone is one place by partially tucking it under the carpet seam.
