How To: C8A restoration in Holland

[Phil Waterman]

Hi Peter

I had forgotten that you were putting a 261 in the HUP, that should fly. Definitely will cut down on the shifting. Though in Holland you shouldn't have lot of long hills to climb.

Be careful starting up from standing stops, don't want to snap the rear axle shafts. I broke both rear axle shafts, one I got a replacement from from friends in Canada, one I had a new one made which is rated for 800 hp made by a company that builds axles for race cars.

Thanks for the update on your project, great work.

Cheers Phil
