[mopardave]

Can you let me know where you got the rear carb fittings? I need to reroute mine and that would be a BIG help.

Thanks for the link I had seen them before but wasn't sure the fitting would fit the new carbs over the originals. So these are what you used on yours?
I noticed you have both chokes in use, I was only using the rear.
My thought was if they came off at different rates it would be too rich.

farmboy70,
the carter AVS and thunder series are the same carbs in general and the fittings went right on, we are setting the carbs up as a progressive linkage with the chokes set equal to start with, we'll see how it runs, Hopefully i can get the drive shaft from keisler quickly and then we can see what it will do.

Don, sorry you and your dad wont make Autorama this year it would be good to see you guys again, How are things at ft.campbell going. take care keep and your six covered.
