I did it!

My 72 (350 crate motor) would not idle. I've never rebuilt a carb before but by the same token I've never let not knowing how to do something stop me. I got a Edelbrock rebuild kit (1405 performer carb) and rebuilt it this weekend....despite my best efforts IT RUNS! I was surprised at how simple they are. Idles like a champ now.
