engine and carb. updates

okay, i've checked everywhere for a vacuum leak, and i cant find one. the vacuum gauge stays at a steady 15. but the carb still doesnt want to work. the secondaries will open on the bottom butterflies, but the top ones will not open.

the truck runs really, REALLY strong when i get on the gas about halfway. it will pull really hard in first gear. i still only have about 380 miles on it, so i dont wanna take it to far no oil leaks or anything like that either.

later this week i'll be getting a temp. carb to use, a 800 edelbrock eps. while thats on, i'll ship my carb back to jegs and then order me a SpeedDemon 650cfm vacuum secondary and the neccasary fuel lines and fittings.

the electric fans work great too
