It is powered by a the original rebuilt Straight-8 engine using bearing inserts on the rods and crank, new rocker assemblies, Tri-Power manifold with fabrication done by Hells Gate, with Stromberg 97s, and headers by Dougs of Auburn. It is equipped with a starter, electric water pump and 140-amp alternator.
