I guess I should have been more clear. Yes....500 is a lot of power for the street ('specially if she's RWH). As far as a carb's ability to to "help" a motor make power....500 is not a lot to me. Bottom line is the Holley will take over when the lil Q-jet is exhausted. It's not really up for debate. I also don't build carbs to get your grandma to the grocery store. You wanna run NOS? You need blow thru? Looking to finish off that 6/71? Get yer self a Holley!

I'm actually surprised we are in second place. I figured we'd be dead last on a truck forum!!

ALSOHIM: I really dig the look of that truck!!! That is the perfect weathered look for a DD or a work truck.
