Holly 2110 ( bugspray) 200cfm
Been slowly rebuilding the bugspray. Striped and painted the cast iron base gloss black.
Interesting carb. Been in production since the 30s as the 94. Hot Rod folks have been using them in two and threes inline. And love them . Lots of cool stuff is still made for them. In the late 60s Holly made a new four bolt base ( as opposed to the original three bolt) for them and started marketing them to the VW crowd as the Bugspray. Many old timers and off road guys know this carb rocks if treated right. You need to run some engine heat to the intake to keep it from icing up.

Spray "Plasti Dip"
My first shot at using Plasti Dip in a spray can. Thought I would plastic coat the inside of my headlight buckets. Should work out great!

Short block
Took the bottom end in to Speed Shop in Harriman , Tn. And two days later Larry has the short block done! Quick!!
Dropped off the engine tin at ABJ Custom Powder Coating for a nice burgundy powder coat. Should look great.
