does anyone have a picture or can take a picture of their headlight switch from the bottom for reffrence i pulled all the wires of mine when i swapped but it never crossed my mind that i had nothing to go by when i wired it all back up. I guess every one has a brain fart every once in while

Fuse box is built into the headlight switch on 61-64, switch has a plug on 65-66. I could shoot one for you but I am 1000 miles from my 62.

I'm assuming you have a 61 from your user name.

You're welcome! Glad it helped. In the true "Slick 60's" tradition I passed it to you as it was passed to me by Uncle Skip.

how does the the three carb setup work as far as throttle reponse and performance wise?

You talking to me? Actually only the middle carb is hooked up to linkage at this time. For some reason the PO (aren't they wonderful?) put a Holly carb in the middle with a cable throttle. The other two are Stromberg 97's and I just picked up another 97 from Bluebolt that I plan to rebuild and replace the center carb. It is very strong with just the center carb (l could easily spin the 31" tires that were on it) and can only imagine strong it will be with the two other carbs. I haven't driven it much since the brakes are crap and I'm ready to install the CPP disc kit. I did drive it home from Yazoo City MS (about 139 miles on the interstate. One scary drive with no virtually no brakes. But the 3 deuces do have the "cool factor" going don't they?

yea mine only has front brakes( great for warming the tires up) but it needs to be fixed. but I love the triplets just the sound of haveing them sounds cool. I'm still running a single two banger would love to put a four barrel on it or maybe two of them if i could
