I've never seen a snow mobile so excuse my ignorance. What kind of transmission does it have and how'ed you hook it to the V8?
I would have to put a fake pull starter on it if it were mine! And act like I was pulling it when I hit the starter button!

It has a snowmobile clutch mounted to the crankshaft and runs a normal snowmobile belt.
I like the fake pull starter idea, going to do that for sure!!!

For the first two years I had a holley 650 dp on it and never missed a beat ever.. Now it is fuel injected with a holley pro jection and works very well also.. Thanks for the comments

I really like that hot rod you have built. I could see myself on that thing about 40yrs ago! Bad to the bone, cold bones in your case! Just one sugestion, if you turn many rpm's I'd like to see you put a harmonic balancer shield or sfi damper on it. Extreme cold weather may make it more brittle, I don't know. It may never let go, but if it does you are too close to it with nothing in between. JMO. Keep on racing and having fun.

I had a 66 S/ST Nova with a holly tunnel ram running 2 660 ctr. squirters mounted side ways, ran from 10.31 to 10.59 with different size sm/blks, never missed a beat in 4 yrs. running it.
