Ha! I could have almost written your last post. I had the exact same experience. Once I put the chin spoiler on it was an arrow on the highway. That manual steering was definitely a rite of passage. I had the 4 barrel Holley conversion done to mine and it ran fantastic. Blasphemy yes, but the frustration of vapor locking on a hot Summer day was something I did not want to constantly deal with.
