Another 4-speed '65 GS back on the road terrorizing Fords, Chevys and Mopars. Way to go, looking good and tough. What's the carb set up that you have?

I really does'nt seem too bad on gas so far . The premise behine the Predator is they are allways the perfect size based on intake air flow. It seems super responsive .

If you get the big dog out of the back seat you will surely get 16 MPG!  :icon_biggrin: Yes, I love my dog too, so I am just giving you a bad time.

Thanks Walt. Wasn't it you whom I swapped nailhead 2x4 intakes with years ago? I will say that the show I was at last weekend had 10,000 cars and mine was the only 65GS there !
