Carburation Question

Gotcha. Well like I said, I will be re-doing the exhaust. I wanted to go with headers or Dutras but the price is a bit much for me at the moment. I've read a few articles/posts stating that you can run a 2.5" pipe from the collector of the stock exhaust manifold, but that you want to reduce the tubing size after the muffler which is what I plan to do.

My local carb shop said they can set it up so it'll run good with the stock internals and updated intake/exhaust. They've built several carbs for me throughout the years and have never let me down, they definitely know their stuff. Eventually I plan to put a mild cam in it, so I'll have them tweak the carb accordingly.

As far as distributors go, I was thinking of installing a Pertronix but came across this setup on ebay. Thoughts?

You don't have to run headers or the Dutras. You can do this to the stock manifold like I had a friend do. I wouldda done it myself, but I SUCK with a dremel tool. Obviously, Freddie does not. LOL
