It's the same as what I have on mine...except that I run a Carter 625....just cuz I had one. It runs super...starts well and helps cure the monojet cold-bloodedness.
I haven't noticed anything negative from running the larger carb at all. I haven't checked gas mileage but then again with 4.10 gears, I don't expect a lot.
You may have to do some forming and fitting to get the Offy manifold and Hedman Hedders to work together. I did. I had to grind a lotta material off the bottom of the intake and also the "bolt-on" plate near the #1 cylinder. But after a little adjustment here and there it works out pretty good. I sure wouldn't wanna go back to the old carb and exhaust manifold.
Btw, you may wanna consider a Pertonix or HEI to replace the points. But then I'm prejudiced against points. (I'm puttin on my firesuit, just waitin for the flames.) | | |
