I think holley is more fine tunable and edelbrock is simpler to tune...

thats what Ive heard..

Ive got the edelbrock, seems pretty easy I like it.

JesseH13 · 01-11-2010, 07:31 PM

thank you for the input

kcfirstbuild · 01-11-2010, 08:32 PM

What kind of drop is in it now ?

Bob 68327 · 01-12-2010, 12:52 AM

I like the holley personally . I have had bad luck with the edelbrock . Not saying the edelbrock is a bad carb just my opinion. Bob

JesseH13 · 01-15-2010, 01:18 AM

My dad thinks hes a real comedian when im gone back at school btw this is a joke...

yellowGT · 01-15-2010, 10:11 AM

Nice truck! If you dont put that trim back on let me know Ill buy it. One more thing...where did those tri-bars come from. I have been looking at different swap meets but they have color dots and/or turn signal in them and thats not what im looking for.

im tha best · 01-15-2010, 10:27 AM

looking pretty good bro! i like the stance. when i have the time or money, i'm putting my 3/4 drop in and if it doesnt sit low enough in the back, i'll put a .75' or inch drop block in. but looks good so far
