Keep Carburetor!!! Manual Choke. Manual choke will save you in the winter. Pull the knob when starting, feed in when warming up. Then your on the road!!! Love your videos!!
Stick with the carb at least you can usually limp it home if it acts up.and never any parts avalible locally for after market fuel injection. Really enjoy your vidios grew up in OKC in the 60s ,but have lived in TX for over 60 years, but still love OK
I like option 3. It’s been a while since I’ve done any performance mods 😂 I’ll have to bust out the Jegs and Summitt catalogs, if they still exist lol.
i broke down the other day also. i called 6 friends to come get me. 3 were going hunting and were like oh man geez i really wanted to go and all of them finally said sorry were going hunting?? another friend said i can AFTER we get back from our 4 hour trip for shopping??? the other 2 just said NO we cant come were busy???? well guess what? 2 of them have called me AGAIN for free help from a friend and i told them and i did NOT lie i was with my elderly mom with cancer on my way to the hospital with her and they pretty much called me a liar!!! so i had to get a tow truck and i guess i lost a bunch of friends. i have ALWAYS went when ANY of them needed help and NEVER asked for any thing. guess you find out who your friends are quick.
I love the simplicity of these old trucks.
You really can’t beat it!

That’s a good idea I haven’t really thought about a manual choke. Thanks for watching!

That is a great point, if fuel injection acts up you’re probably not limping it anywhere. Thanks for watching!

Go with edelbrock. That’s what I put on my 64 Impala. No troubles yet!
If I go with a 4 barrel it will probably be an Edelbrock, there pretty reliable.
First thing I would do is check timing and look for vacuum leaks.
I know I’ve got vacuum leaks that need fixed.
Seems like mine sit enough the motorcraft carb gets rebuilt regularly because the seals dry out. I'd like to put a 4 barrel on min for fuel injection
I’m telling you I can take them old girls off your hands and you won’t have those problems anymore 😅
Holley sniper 2bbl probably cost about as much as finding the intake and a good 4bbl. Factory carb will have it running like factory though
Good to know I’ll check into that thanks!
You can take the electric choke off and put a manual pull choke on it
Good idea

Man that’s awful. Hopefully you get your truck fixed!
No fuelie, stick with simple!
That’s what I’m leaning towards.
Heavy breathing. Please change your diet. 😊
