new carb awesome, heres a burnout video
 

hey i got my new carb installed and my new 390 has finally come to life. so i took the wife out to the powerstation road and had her use the digitial camara to make a video. sorry there is no sound but just imagine a 390 with duals kicking out a beautiful tone. because that is what she does now. hopefully this link works to take you directly to my website where there is a link to the video at the top of the page.. it is about 3.9 megs long and takes a few seconds to open for broadband users and a little slower for dial up, and i hope you enjoy it. i sure did.

SWEEEEEEET!!!!! Glad to hear you got it running :-wink :-X22

yeah she rocken' now i only held it for a minute , but i could have held it there easy all day, or until the tires blew. but those are those 10ply tires and i didnt want to tear them up very much, i trading them in next weekend for new tires and rims.

Good work man! Now how about throwin a 390 in my Bronco for me? :-X22

Bronco? thats too heavy, we had a guy from around here bring his sammy upto the races last sunday with a 390, and nitrous :-X10 but a bronco with a 390 would be fun.
Fordlover glad to here you finally got that thing running right, I knew you could do it those 390s will really roast tires in fact the last one I had that was my main problem was keeping rear tires on the truck :-X22

Wow.... a Ford truck doing a burnout on a rural road in Iowa... that's something you don't see everyday.

Oh, wait... yeah, it is! 8D

Lookin' good, there.... glad you got it runnin', and runnin' nicely, it seems.

yeah the stress went right out the window when i fired it up with that new carb and she sounded sweet. i so happy i could cry. lol now time for the body work. now i am gonna cry

Sweet!

...Note to self... don't loan truck to fordloverf2501970 on a deserted country road... :-X10

lol, i dont do that everyday lol, i was just testing out the new carb lol. as a matter of fact thats the first time i have done that since the last time i was racing my el camino at cordova dragway. but i have to admit that brought back a few of those 1/4 miles in my head

hey ford love where in iowa are you at? im in fort madison and was just curios

roughly 20 miles north of you, i am in burlington

oh cool i was just wondering thanks.
chrono

I never did a burnout , how do you keep the truck still? if you hold the brakes dosn't that also hold up the rear tires? lol its a stupid question i know.

If you have enough power, it overrides the brakes.
