Tech Question
elaine cornthwait, ann arbor, MI, 1984 dodge truck 318
Hi Rick,
The original 2bbl carb is shot so I'm replacing it with an Edelbrock 650
AVS type w/ electric choke and 360 spreadbore cast iron intake manifold.
Questions: 1: Should I buy the intake gasket w/ the heat crossover blocked? (I think the part no. is Fel-pro 12-13?) and Q 2: Is that carb to big? (318 w/ 4-speed, 132k, 4X4 3/4 ton, all original.
Thanks! You rock! Elaine
Elaine, it should be fine, the carb's nowhere near too big. If it bogs, just tighten the air door adjustment. For 4-season street use, keep the exhaust (crossover) heat.
It'd be a better swap with either an old 340 square-bore manifold OR your "new" manifold with any T-Q.
Rick
