unfortunately it a 1962 model, so that is out of the question. Its going to have to be all mechanical mods.

yeah it will definately have a mechanical injection pump on it, your best bet is to find the injection pump and look for a screw or something that has what looks like baling wire running thru it to keep someone from messing with it and chances are that is your fuel screw...now i would say to have the engine running when you start tweaking this in case it starts to run away or do something you dont want it to and you can return it back to normal fast, and probably have a piece of plywood to put over the air intake incase of runaway too

Nitrous!?!?!?!?!

It really depends on what ya want to do with it, you could make ya custom air intake, get injectors made or cut for it, add a turbo or get a bigger one if it already has one

it doesnt have a turbo. I had actually considered installing a turbo. Im not trying to do tractor pulls just get some more juice for out in the field. Its got an oil bath air cleaner, and seems to get plenty of air.

really air and fuel is the way to make power so more air and more fuel will get you more power
