all you have to do is read this thread. i told you earlier get a 1ton front a 14bff rear.

build traction bars instead of that weird swingy block thing.

and get the best tranny you can afford.

Re: 1980 chevy long bed!

All carbs have the same bottom right? So it does matter what manifold there is right?

Re: 1980 chevy long bed!

the edelbrock (carter) has both the quadrajet (spreadbore) bolt pattern and the 4150 holley (squarebore) pattern so it will fit on either pattern

Is there anyway to make sure a carb works without hooking it up.

yes it will, it has both patterns.

you may need to lay a gasket on it to make sure the secondaries will clear the flange but a little time with a flad wheel or die grinder will solve that.
