They flew that V-22 out of the sea and landed it safely after being several feet into the water. One marine bailed out and was presumed drowned. Both engines were toast. Apparently the engines were started in a run-mode not intended for flight.

Reminds me of this: Captain of TransAsia Flight 235 shut off working engine
Seems not only the pilot training outside of the US is in a sad state ;-)

I've not really considered it. Simplicity is a good reason not the spend $4K on the Weber setup...... The Holley set up is about 1/4 of that. (but not near the cool factor)

I'm trying to avoid Porsche prices on the 65 and have been semi-successful. Mustang prices are about half or 1/3rd.....but there are a lot more issues to address.

Ford inline carbs for the Mustang? Must be pricey...

IIRC, the only small block manifolds made for these carbs mated to Boss heads--which were intended to be really high RPM running beasts.
