Did overhead in a bay I had.... would end up with a lap full if I wasn't careful. Speed bumps did a self cleaning effect when driving a little too fast.

A little too fast for speed bumps that is.

Was a 71 hitop bay with a type 1 twin port bored and stroked to 78x90.5, ported heads, twin delorto's, header, cam, etc with a late bay gearbox. Cruised comfortable at 70-80mph with lots to spare. 7% grades were 60mph in 3rd @4000rpm.

thought it was best until we got our t25.
