jostrans68 · 06-22-2003, 11:24 PM

krue · 06-22-2003, 11:28 PM

ckenwright · 06-22-2003, 11:35 PM

I have that POS on my 69. I gives decent power but sucks gas.

Blue_71 · 06-22-2003, 11:38 PM

thats not a rochester dual jet, the dual jet looks like a chopped off quadrajet... thats a GM 2 jet (should have a bowtie on top and say 2 jet)

jef5150 · 06-23-2003, 12:05 AM

if you want to get" technical",,,,,rochester 2GV (SAE 1 1/4),,

pissonNOS · 06-23-2003, 12:27 AM

SEVEND2 · 06-23-2003, 12:33 AM

ummm is that a Stick (twig) in the Vacuum line infront of the Distrib?????

Hotrod70C10 · 06-23-2003, 12:49 AM

I think it is sevend2! That reminds me of my old boss's 71 he bought it from an old man. the vacum ports were stuffed with twigs, not a vacum hose with a twig. I guess a $2 pack of caps were a little steep in price for the guy that used to own his truck. lol

Blue_71 · 06-23-2003, 01:11 AM

thats actually pretty populer with 2 jets, both of em ive had were twiged

71-longbed · 06-23-2003, 02:02 AM

thats Arkansa.... sticks in vacuum lines

68CST327 · 06-23-2003, 02:21 AM

At least be a little more resourceful about it and put a bolt in it like I did

71-longbed · 06-23-2003, 02:28 AM

hi 68CST327

lets see something other than your interior

68CST327 · 06-23-2003, 03:04 AM

D'oh!

Yeah I keep forgetting to take more pictures. Well, maybe when the rain lets up. I know everyone wants to see some nice exterior shots of it in half-primer, half-sanded areas

**Palf70Step** · 06-23-2003, 06:47 AM

Krue....need to find you another intake and carb for that dude. Mississippi law, you cant have 32's with a 2 bbl.

krue · 06-23-2003, 09:32 AM

That ain't mine! I got a 4 barrel QuadraJet. And I use bolts to plug my vacuum lines. That was on that long step I told u about.
You should see the radio cutout! It looks like it was cut out with a pair of pliers!

SEVEND2 · 06-24-2003, 08:49 AM

LOL i had Golf tees pluging my Vacuum lines, before i redid the engine. to this day i have no idea how they got there.. I dont play golf nor know any one who does or did
