Hey steve i would pick the 770 for your truck too!

eandaauto a bad power valve will cause a carb to run rich and backfire! I would have used carb cleaner if a iwas selling it. He siad its set perfect thats bull ****. Its it wouldn't be pitch black if it was dialed in. I know its a manual choke but still!!!

I hope it works for you man but I don't think you will be impressed.
My intentions are not to make you mad but I think you will have problems with it.
