It has also been ported, polished, and balanced with a high performance harmonic balancer. Additionally, it has a five-speed gearbox, an alloy flywheel, and a new 10.5-inch clutch. The suspension bushings have also been replaced, along with all new flexible brake lines. Built in 1953, titled in 1954.
