Well, you're right, it has seemed quiet. For me, the mild winter here in the
northeast has hampered my "work" on my B. Usually, I can escape to the garage
on those chilly nights & weekends, but since it is warm, the kids want to DO
something. (can you imagine? they actually want to SEE me...well they're young
yet.)

But back to the car, I am going to remove the stock manifold/2bbl carb and
replace it with an Edelbrock/Holley4bbl. This pair was from a ford 351W from
around the same time, the linkage matches (more or less) ANY thoughts?
Anything to look out for?

Project 2: I need to "supplement" my vacuum compressor for the air doors with
an electric one. The vac works great, but I'd like to have the electric so I
can turn it on and let it build pressure before I actually start the car
(using a little tire compressor 15 minutes before I want to go anywhere is
becoming tiresome) So, since it is just a "backup" which model could I use?
How can I get it in place (where in the lines) and how do I put in a pressure
valve or anti-backup thingy so the two compressors can work together.

I'm sure it may have been covered in great detail already, but let's get
chattin'
