Well this showed up friday. Along with all my exhaust, mufflers, harmonic damper, rear blocks, and a few other odds and ends.
But I drank waaaaaay to much on saturday to get anything done. LOL So hopefully over this week and weekend i can have some more progress pics up.

Holly all the way, I think there's alot more tunability in a Holly opposed to an Edelbrock. They're not that hard to dial in either. Everything just needs to be the right size, lol.
GET OUT OF HERE WITH THAT RICER MATH!

gotta love rust!
(ps...where did you get the sections you replaced on YOUR truck?...I cut the rust out of mine, and used fiberglass as a temporary filler...thinking I want the actual metal replaced come spring before I pay to have the bottom half of truck rhino-lined)

They have slip ons or complete panels. I got the completes and just used what I needed.
