Holley HP carb body air bleeds are 10-32. The set screws work good.

I know, that's why I bought the Holley bleed kit. I was going to drill and tap my non-HP body and use the 8/32 set screws on it.
 
$454 to rent an auto transport one way for up to 4 days.

Or $47 per day. If I wasn't staying 10 days I'd just pay the daily rate and drive the fuckin trailer up there to get the car.

Fuckin robbery
 
Oh and fuck Hagerty.

They want $1398/year to insure my car to drive 4x a month MAYBE. that's fucking insanity
 
Also just realized...

93 octane is 5.29/gal. My mustang has 22 gallon fuel cell. $116 to fill up my street car is CRAZY.

I feel bad for you race fuel guys, but then again you don't drive around town with it

We use Grundy for our 2002 Vette, it's about $600 a year. But........... It can not be a backup vehicle, meaning since there are two drivers in this house, we need to have three other registered and insured cars, which we do. But that 3rd costs at least another $600 a year so the Vette is actually $1200 a year............

Mine was 12.8:1 on 93, it'll be 14.5:1 on 112ish, on the street. Had to go 40 minutes to get pump 93, now I have a VP station 10 minutes away so....more cr and racing fuel it is🤣

Hey Fox, check with NCM Insurance, they are a broker for American Modern and they work hard to get you a good price. I have 3 collector policies through them, all agreed value, for $700 a year total.
 
On the way to figure out this carburetor and timing situation

Go with historical plates and look at normal insurance.
If historical plates in your area last a few years you come out ahead in registration fees

That's a great idea

So if someone totals it insurance gives me 2500 instead of $70,000.

Fuck that
 
That wasn't meant as a "dick" statement....merely a fact. No one buys reciepts, and I do not doubt as to what you have in it, and that doesn't account for time. Just get the best insurance deal you can find.
