Well I knew I couldn't leave the Two Barrel on for Long LOL Anyways the Carb developed a Leak so it has to come off to get rebuilt so NO Better time to Go to 4 Barrel I guess, Add the Longtubes, 2.5" pipes with flows, front / rear Shock, Rear Sway bar from Impala SS, Finish bolting up the gforce trans member And then at Least it would Sound Better, Painted the Manifold and repainted the Valve covers to match the Shade of Blue.

 

[Limey]

Well I have almost everything Needed now thanks to a swap Deal with Chevellelaguna aka Tom Palkovic for Horse swapping stuff, Have to get carb gasket Parts store only had a 15 dollar gasket for carb LOL NOT The G force is Already Under car just waiting to get finished bolting up

Today Got the Grill from 77 el camino its Nice Solid Grill NOW JUST HAVE TO leave it on car and Quit Thinking about Powder coating it black the Chrome is Very Nice on it Very Happy with it NO NEED to remove center brace of Header panel, and Only have to drill One Hole each lower side the Top one is a Direct fit each side and it lines it up Perfectly
