Any members on this site in the Waukesha ,Milwaukee Wisconsin area, looking for a place to do a final tune are adjustments on my Olds. I've call a couple shop and no one seem to work on these old school engine with carbs. I even call a place I was consider to have the car dyno the guy says we don't work on those type of engine. WHAT. I have stop guys that I've seen with hot rod when ask were they take theirs car to get them tune, they say sh.t like any shop, its like its a big secret. its Olds 455 with a Edelbrock carb and Hei distributor simple setup. it seem I may have to go to the Chicago area to get it done.

Go to STREET WORKS in the old "BON-TON" plant. Ask for Matt Backhouse. Tell him "John's Dad sent you!"
