Got my carb on today! ( finally)

I bought a Carb. from Longhornman, A 1406 Edelbrock. I received it very fast, and It's been a couple of weeks now, and I haven't had a chance to work on the truck, Today we took a couple of hours, between working on clocks,( my side work to have truck money) I installed the carb, and grandson hit the key. Fired right up, took a couple of seconds to get the carb. full of fuel, then I let it idle. I had to adjust the idle ( I'm running a cam, it idles right at 1000 rpm.) adjusted the air bleed jets, and hit the throttle. Instant response. I may have to do some fine tuning on it for my engine, But IT WAS EVERYTHING ANDY SAID IT WAS, ( There never was any doubt !)

It's right down to no excuse not to get it to the front end shop and hit the streets.
