Re: It's coming along........
No dust in the carb. I had to take the distributor out yesterday and had to remove the air cleaner to get it out. I'll take a air hose and try to blow most of that away before I try to start it.

Re: It's coming along........
Like your truck. The additions will only make it better. Good luck and many miles with the new engine. Built stroker or GM crate?
