Perfect carb and head

'Just got back to reality. 9 hours of sleep last night almost doubled my total for the week. We had 54" of snow in my backyard and drifts to the roof (7-9'). I do snow removal (run a crew of snowblowers) and we worked 45 hours over the last four nights...
I don't have a lift on my Bronco, just four good studded snow tires and a full set of chains (which I never did have to put on).
The "old mule" was flawless, once I dropped the tire pressure to around 30 psi. 'pulled out the chebby plow dog ('82 1 ton) twice and another one of the crew's 2500 big ram once. I got stuck once fartin' around blowin drifts when I slid sideways WAAAAY into the next one... That's when I lowered the psi.
Bottom line, I really need to decide which carb and header to go with, now that the money isn't an issue.

Thanks to everyone for their input on the subject! To be continued... the bed is callin' me back...
