FA 10 has a new home

[fbref5269]

hi all,

i just took delivery on a restored a looper from ted miller. FA 10 now has a new home. this will be displayed as often as i can this winter. i will be looking for shows to go to. the best part is that davey augustine has found his dads ols a looper and we will be running them next race season. davey's number is in the 160's so it has more improvements than the fa 10. the engine was originally purchased by jack schmittel in the early 60's does anyone have any info on jack? let me know if you do.

the picture i've posted shows the engine with gen 3 stacks, they are from my fc 52 engine. the fa 10 has gen 1 stacks and boy what a difference.

the other picture i've posted is of the carb. ted miller seems to think it was converted to gas, but i'm not sure. the tube on the other side of the intake looks like a return tube. can anyone help me on this. the engine is ready to fire up and i'm picking up a hydro from the period may by the bowman's and want to fire it up.

any help will be greatly appreciated.
