Brake related I can add. On my 58 Apache we recently put a edelbrock carb on instead of the double holley. Pulled vaccum from the same place on both carbs but the brakes acted real sensitive. So I removed the line and plugged the port. Brakes there but just slightly harder to push down than drum brakes all around. So today I put a restrictor of sorts, a foot and half length of rubber hose that fit inside the 3/8 ID hose I was using. That worked!!

Before it felt like the brakes were being applied without the brake light coming on. It was that sudden.
