Right now with scrap values so high, I'm surprised they sell the GM stuff anywhere but to the scrapyard. (How's that Dog?)

Watch out now Doug's got my back.

Carb is out of the way, made the old man feel bad for hording parts, so he give me a holley 650 , still new in the box..... chalk another one up for the good guys.

Damn, I could use that carb. I'm running a borrowed AFB now. My old Holley is on the bench.
