Re: PROJECT: How would a Chevrolet dealer build a shop truck in the early 1970s?

Good point. That may well be what I wind up doing, but I was thinking of ways to minimize exceptions to my stock-only rule. Out of curiousity I checked on the proper part number and date code matching carb for this combo: $700-1400. And the real distributor is around $1,300 -- yikes!

For the most part I'd like to walk into my local Napa store and ask for stock parts and get what I need without extra cutting or bending.

But thanks for the feedback, that may well be what I do.
