Thumbs up truck is in the shop

We finally got the truck out to the shop Sunday. They were looking at it and they found out why I've been geting such bad mileage. The carb that was on my truck had an electric choke and my truck is setup for a hot choke, at least thats how I think he meant it. So that explains the 9-10 mpg. So I need to get a new carb. I'm going to see about geting an edelbrock for it. Hopefully this will fix the problem.

no I'll just get an adapter. I want to waste as little money as possible on the 305.
