Thanks!! It is getting there. I am working on the front end now. I have all so painted the valave covers Black. I throught that maybe there was to much red. I have had it out for a drive up and down the road behind my house to make sure things keep working. I just have to much carb.on it. It is a 770 i got from a friend and I feel that it is just to much. When I do the math 600 at the most.

Lookin' good, Bob! What gas tank are you using? That seems to fit real nice there. Is that a custom front bracket and straps you made?

The gas tank is from Tank's. It was for a 51 ford truck. It was $250.00 to my house and it came with strapes , filler neck. Yes it fit right where I wanted to. The front bracket is a part of the old spare tire mount.

My engine is a 351W with a RV cam. Thats why I feel I need to go down to a 600CFM. Not sure who's I well use. I am a Holley guy but have had good luck with Elderbrock. I all so see where Summit has old style Holley for about 234.00. If any one has some input let me know.

They say over carburetion is one of the biggest mistakes made. It destroys low end torque on all but the highest performing engines. It really is bad on off-road applications where control is critical.

I see you got your video up and running. Please disregard my previous post then...
On another note, I have an Holley carb you may be insterested in..? It may need gone over once or twice...
Contact me if you are interested (I 'm not sure what CFM though)
