Stacked Hemi







Dear Mr. Harpoon,

As you requested on your blog, here are some pictures of my HEMI FXR
running your FMA stacks.. I love 'em so much i run two of 'em on it.. The
only way to keep two Super Es tucked in and still breathe easily..

Warm regards from the other side of the world,

1939 Knucklehead hillclimber Trans

Pretty neat old early harley 4-speed Trans from a 1939 knucklehead. Huge sprocket over the early 4 stud '36-40 clutch drum sprocket! Crazy side cover to delete the kick start but still work the clutch push rod. My friend Matt Olsen says the case must be late '39/early '40 with the counter bored breather plug area plus the D9 date code on the case and jockey lid. Neat.

going through old photos on the new computer. I think this was from our last Vagrant Vinny show...too bad we had to end 5 years of a fun band at the Slide Bar...

Four Wheels and Far Out!

Took some time out of the spraybooth and Went up to Los Angeles to see this car at the Peterson Automotive Museum. Really wanted to see this car in person before the exhibit on Italian Design closed. What a treat-it's so tiny-the wheels are a mere 13"!!!!
The 1970 Lancia Strattos HF Zero fully functional concept car. Built by Bertone, who also fashioned another favorite- the DeLorean!
And since the Peterson is down the street from canters...

The stacks are back in town again!

Our beautiful velocity stacks for the Super E and CV carb are back in stock! These stacks are available beautifully polished or in an "as-cast" finish (by request). And as always, made with love in Southern California.

Anyone running one of our stacks, please send us a pic to
FMA @ getchoppedout.com
Thank you!
Got some more seat time on the '37 this weekend as I am in the hardest part of riding a new bike with a fresh motor...the break in period. Slow and easy miles around town sure don't rack up like you think they would!
It is fun none the less. Mike is enjoying his kiyo built ULH too.
