Dual carbs, BUT that's when I had an intake manifold which didn't seat
with the heads and things weren't working right (it was running way
too rich.. nothing like a stream of water coming out the exhaust pipes!)

The new intake manifold is here and my friends and I should have things
running in 2-3 weeks.... it better work by the time the reunion rolls
around (which you on the geeks list have heard about.)

(too bad we have day jobs.)
