sounds good i hope mine is running half as decent when im done. I found my problem though, after trying to start the truck today It wouldnt stay running. I checked the carb and there was gas running out the carb to egr plate. I will get some gasket sealer and put on both sides so the leak stops. Im getting there 1 step at a time

Where's the throttle?
I have thought about a four barrel swap on both my 1982 f-150 and my 1985 bronco. How did you hook your throttle up?
Yeah, I am having a MUCH easier time tuning the 4bbl than the old 1bbl. Sure don't miss it.
That's awesome you got it started. If you have all the plastic color coded vacuum lines, they're known to have vacuum leaks. It's best to pretty much remove all of them and put in all new lines. Not too expensive, but it gets rid of a lot of leaks.

As for me, I just made my own out of plate steel and bolted it to the intake. You can see pictures in my supermotors pics. The link should be in my signature. Nothing fancy, but it works just fine.
