If your MT is anything like mine you will surprise a lot of people and other pullers too. I have a 1951 with original wide front and average rear tire tread (no fluid but one cast weight on each rear). In most cases I can pull down the engine all the way without having the front end come off the ground or slipping the rear tires. I run a semi-straight pipe and always get applause from the croud as my MT is two-tone green with some of it painted with a brush. People see it as old but with a heart of a champion. More than that I have one pull-through and two 1st places in four times at bat. Perhaps my competition was shoddy, but not always. Enjoy the ride!
