Re: test drive

My brother used to live in Vidor down the road from you. It sounds like you were expecting these old original 350 to run fast? If you take the cam, intake, carb, and dist out and replace with newer technology you will be quantly suprised. I am guessing the quadraflood is bad and or the fuel pump, maybe a flat cam and don't get me started on the points dist. Find one and make the above changes or buy one already updated. It sounds like this one is tired and might ultimately need a motor. Good luck, let me know if you are looking for a a nicer updated truck/burb/ or Blazer as they are nice and rust free.
