Re: Carb Recomendation?

The existing carb has been thru some bad times and badly abused during restoration and customization of the truck. Total loss. It is far beyond my expertise to rebuild a carb, and tune it, and get it right for reliable driving.

My experience in 69 years has been that carb rebuilds, on anything, are a waster of time, money and effort. So my only viable option is a new one. And though I am going to sell the truck, I want it done right. I am going to do whatever I would do if I were keeping it. I want to look a buyer in the eye and tell them all the work was done properly and that ii is 100% reliable.

Thanks for all the input from everyone. I knew that this was going to open up the two main camps when I started the thread, but this info will be valuable to a few others out there, too
