Thanks to the forum, I got my truck back together - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I replaced my intake manifold gasket today (to try and track down a mysterious vacuum leak). I also put the stock #62 primary jets back in the carb. Well, once I got it back together and running, and the floats set...I'd rev it, and it wouldn't wanna rev, it'd just kinda like cough and pop and sputter. So, I think I'm gonna put the #64's back in and see what happens.

Definately idle's better though, I actually got the idle turned WAAY down and it sounded like it had a MEAN cam.

You forgot, I have two other cars to make look good too..to this point, I've been putting 99% of my money into my vette, to get it to run 12.99's, and it's finally going 13.0's, so I'm done now. Once I get a back to workin, I'm gonna swap a Vortec/292H/RPM "AirGap"-750 and on top of that, I might bang a switch

Cuz my goal is to get the truck (on the motor) to go 12.99's. That way both my cars will be nice
