My son-in-law is doing a little better. If I get the time I'll try to install the heated O2 sensor in the passengers side header so I can get that Holley 600cfm fine-tuned....it's still sooting up the tailpipes--only not as much as before the carb mod.




(previous photo)
I used a vacuum gauge to reset the carb after I bolted it back on...the truck runs like a scalded hyenna now (like they said--there's a slight bog if its floored...but I don't need to floor it with all 4 barrels working together!)

Well....it's getting 18mpg locally...but I havent made a long trip in it yet to check highway mpg...I really want to tune the carb using the o2 sensor in case it's running too lean at highway speed....

DG, does all this carb work ever make you want to just sit back with some PB&J and munch?
