Pt. 6

A lot of the cars had hitches mounted, and tagged along camping trailers. The meet took place on the grounds of an aeroplane museum.

My beater car is in the shop, so for the last 2 weeks i have been daily driving my Newport, work, groceries, dropping my daughter off at school, running errands and all. Autumn is in full swing, rainy, misty and cold. I feel very fortunate i can enjoy this car for all these years since the rebuild. Soon it will roll over on the odometer , which accounts to 20k miles since i have had it

Pic from today getting groceries. And an alternate Mad Max apocalypse AI version

Edelbrock AVS2 650 has my vote. I put it on my 400, once I got the linkages and adapters to play together it's been trouble free. I did use a Weiand intake, at the time it was the only one available.

Pulling the trigger on the 4bbl swap, here is my list:

Fel-Pro MS 96007 Fel-Pro Valley Pan Gaskets | Summit Racing
Fel-Pro MS 90175 Fel-Pro Intake Manifold Gaskets | Summit Racing
Edelbrock 1906 Edelbrock AVS2 Series Carburetors | Summit Racing
Summit Racing SUM-G1398 Summit Racing™ Carburetor Spacers | Summit Racing
Edelbrock 8126 Edelbrock Single-Feed Fuel Line Kits | Summit Racing
Edelbrock 8087 Edelbrock Carburetor Inlet Fittings | Summit Racing

You reckon i should add anything more?

I plan on modifying the stock air cleaner fot the bigger hole.

Suggestions welcome.

Pt.9 of the Berlin trip this year. Back into Poland, heading home. An old war museum with cool weaponry, mostly original, some replicas as well but period correct.
