Okay, was hoping the word "topless" would catch some people's attention, lol.

Got the Autolite 4100 cleaned up and idling smoothly again after a period of sitting.

While reinstalling it, I decided to test the theory if you can run one without the top lid installed. You indeed can!!!!

But, of course!!!

The other video I have on there of the exhaust shows how the other end sounds as well.
It's not road worthy at the moment due to a rebuilt C4 leaking at the pump and running down the bell housing. Its coming back out and going to a shop for fixing, tweaking and full testing before going back in the car so I don't find problems like tat again once it is fully reinstalled.
