My 79 did have a 267 v8 that went to 100,000 miles, I took that out and put a new gm 305 crate motor that they put in the 1980 or 81 corvette and I just reused my 2 barrel carb and manifold with all 5 miles of vaccuum lines,still had to pass emissions back then. That motor now has around 125,000...

I just had my cousin put a edelbrock 2701 intake and a holly 1850s carb which is 600cfm on my 79 Monte Carlo 305. He took all the smog crap off also. It runs like a different car.It had 2 barrel carb on it from factory.Feels like it picked up 50 horses.The intake and carb was new,he said all he...
