Although it has been a long drag, my bomb of a truck is running, driving, and all in all a blast to drive. I abandoned the whole tri power idea, (boy do i have alot to go on ebay), bought johns intake , a new Holly and presto, vroooooooom Thanks for all your guidance and Help ! Mike Yes I know the wires go underneath, I just can't resist that old hot rod look !

the spark plug wires may be in the wrong place, but, alot better to work with, was thinking of doing it myself, thanks for helping me make up my mind.

Which Holley carb did you use? Are you going to give us Y-Blockers a shot at your unused parts before you put them on e-bay?

Mike i can understand your frustration with a 3x2 setup. I tried to do it myself and ended up calling in Dick (http://dickshotrodplace.com/) and he made it a turn key process. Now it works good and looks great!!

I don't understand the frustration. Am I just lucky? My 3x2's run great. I haven't touched them since I tried too big jets. Set 'em and forget 'em.

sure sure rub it in guys ~ it's ok, I am loving the way my truck is running, I actually have to be careful not to spin the tires  sorry birdman I believe it's a 553 edelbrock but it's in real nice condition. I have a fenton too, but the front left ear has a little crack, gonna weld that before i sell it, Have a bunch of 94's 3 were totally redone, but must have sat too long. I have the long fuel log with custom made steel lines and a pressure gauge and progressive linkage. mike
