Re: "Rice Rocket'

it came off of a 71 gmc but if you dont think it'll work...

I'll go measure the height just in case, and measure the 1 on my truck while im remembering

oh i made the shock mounts but did em different (backwards of each other, dangit) so i'll have to make the 1 i screwed up using the 'good' one from my truck

Re: "Rice Rocket'

talking about your choke i used to have a cable just hooked to my carb and reached under the dash and pulled the cable and held it to start my inline 6 when i had it. i think the kit to convert to electric choke is about $40-$50 on a edelbrock. It sucks that they don't make that one bezel maybe cut a hole?

i agree in order to make it look okay you should start by drilling a hole and going bigger and bigger tell the whole is right size you should do it that would be sick
