i am pretty excited about this , i traded a tilt col, to another guy on the board for this , Eldelbrock TBI intake and Holley TBI unit, so hopefully i can pull a little more HP out of my little 350, the intake will be painted orange to match the original theme of the motor !!

Pull the TBI unit off and have the intake bored out to match the Holley throttle body bore before you paint or install the intake.

can you bore it ?? i was looking and it looks like there is some kind of hollow chanel in there ?? i was thinking i might have to get a holley intake that is already the right size ??

Well your building a quality truck. No matter what color you paint it it's going to be awesome.

if you look to the right of the welded in piece you can see how far it come in compared to where the stock floor was , just a little over an inch
