Free carb.

This is a three year old Road Demon Jr 525 taken off the 312 in my Fairlane a few months back. Carb was working great with good response and returning 16-18 MPG. I took it off because it had a slight hesitation off idle that drove me nuts and I couldn't completely eliminate. I replaced it with a street Demon which cured the problem. Should be a good carb for engines 351 and under. Free to anyone on the board that can use it. Would like you to pay the shipping only. Please PM if you can use it.

I'm sick of running the dual quads on the race truck, This will be an affordable route for me to try with a single 4v
