Sweet truck Blackwidow, and this is just an odd thought, have you considered adding fuel injection to the 350? that might help you out with the mpg, and hotstart issue. The only bad thing would be the wiring, unless you don't mind wiring lol

I will say wiring FI can suck but it would be worth it in the end. Just depends on work that has been done to the engine and whatnot and being able to tune it to eachother.

well guys. shes sold. i couldnt keep her any longer. shes going to a good home though.

i did figure the gas problem out though. the intake i put on was made for a quadrajet carb and not a standard holley edelbrock type flange. so it was causing a huge gas leak.

swapped intakes and got it nailed. but i never got to drive it really fixed.

so needless to say. goodbye buddy. i will miss you dearly

Hey boys and girls. I know I haven't been around these parts in over a year. Life has dealt me some serious battles. But I have great news

The blackwidow went to a great home. The new owner loves the truck and takes it to shows regularly.

I myself bought a 90 ranger shortbed 2wd 2.3 5 speed as a knock arounder. Well after a year of searching. I acquired a newly rebuilt. 93 mustang 5.0. E303 roller cam. With aluminum svo heads. So I'll be starting a new build in the next upcoming months.

Ladies and gents. Blackwidow is reborn!!!!
