Re: My 68 c10
You are moving right along......It's cool that your dad is not doing it for you. I have a 20 year old son and I have built him already two vehicles so I am done, if he wants it he has to build them himself, I am letting him bang his head beforeI bail him out.
Love what you have already done with it....:metal: |

Re: My 68 c10
Hey everyone, I would like to thank all of you for your interest and nice comments on my son's low budget but hard labor build.;) He really loves his truck. He has put every dollar he earned this winter break into it(with a few exceptions to take his girl out:lol:) He is working very hard on it every day and he does not want Dad to do everything all I have to do is guide him along the way. I am so PROUD to watch him enjoy his truck.:metal:

Re: My 68 c10
Hey im just trying to get more opinions on this forum... Any one that reads this feel free to answer please....
should i stay with the holly carburetor or go with an edlbrock carburetor?? |
Re: My 68 c10
Whats wrong with the holley? There both good brands
|
Re: My 68 c10
I think holley is more fine tunable and edelbrock is simpler to tune...
thats what Ive heard.. Ive got the edelbrock, seems pretty easy I like it. |
Re: My 68 c10
thank you for the input
|
Re: My 68 c10
What kind of drop is in it now ?
|
Re: My 68 c10
I like the holley personally . I have had bad luck with the edelbrock . Not saying the edelbrock is a bad carb just my opinion. Bob
