Checked every box on the order form except windshield and radio; wind in the face, music from the motor. Installed "Panic" botton on dash in front of passenger (makes them feel like they have some sort of control). Botton actually does nothing but make me laugh at the sissy's.

I was under the impression you guys wanted the hot speed set-up Donzi. As I read the posts, it appears you want everyone's specs. Should make a nice addition to the registry pages. My 69' won't be the fastest, but it's a heck of an ego trip at the launch ramp.

Round ear 3 blade SS (Best speed improvement piece so far.)
22" with all the cup we could put in it.

Added a Hydromotive nosecone when I didn't know I didn't need it. Should have bought a prop from those folks. Replaced the Distributor, Carb with a 600CFM Holley, K&N Filter, No speed, but a wonderful improvement - Bilt-Rite interior.
