yes it made a big diff. the 1 barrel was baaad . Ldrove back from arizona with a clothes pin holding the choke open it had no power on hills top speed was 65 mph with the wind. Now 85 mph [ i did it once] pulls hills a lot better I had a 3.0 rear end and now it is geared lower but I dont know what it is yet, lost the old rear end in gallup new mexico, they charged me $1500.for a used rear end installed. what a hoseing. I could have done the job myself for $200. here at home.
