Jeff, I ordered the car in the fall of 1965. In 1976 , I built the current 95 HP combo from a short block I got from Bob Shaw(I was originally from Columbus. Ohio and at that time Bob lived near Columbus).
It's pretty much a Pure Stocker. Stock suspension, stock Corvair 4spd, stock Corvair rear (4:11 gears), Weber clutch and flywheel (1973) with Hays disc, Lunati pure stock cam (1976) and TRW .060 pistons.
As a 95/100 combo (factored to 100 after Bob won the Sportsnationals with one in 1975) it's a natural 24 pound car. But, with all the weight I can get out it manages to make the middle of V/S.
