HAHA at Rolla! OK. Mel picked out a nice intake for the 350. An Airgap knock off. Nicely priced... Headers are next!!!
Pic is from the ebay auction..

I'll get a nice carb spacer and some ARP bolts for the intake. Startin to come together..I figure I'll be down for about a month. I might have her raod ready for the G-Body Nation run. The car will stay with Chris and Mel for a couple weeks to get all the kinks worked out before I get on the road to cali...Stay tuned.....

Ok. The intake came in today. Looks good. Just gettin all the lil nick nacks together before I head out to Az to get the motor going. Making a checklist of all the stuff needed...

Holley 4150 600cfm single inlet setup off my GMP crate motor. Lil polish and it will shine up nicely. I just threw the water neck on there for the pic..

Lil stuff needed: Break in oil, thermostat, spark plugs and just the usual lil stuff needed for a new motor break in. Not sure when Im headed out to AZ for the motor and how Im gonna get the El out there. We shall see....

looks like its coming along smooth.. i like that fuel filter and gauge set up I need to look into one of those, you gonna run a fuel pressure regulator too?

HAHA! Thanks Chris!

Thanks bruh! I got that from summit for like $20 or so a while back. I have the dual feed one for my new carb on my SS. Looks clean. Imma run it just like I did on the SS before I swapped carbs---fuel line off the fuel pump right into the filter/gauge then carb. Maybe I should look into that tho. I remember asking if I could run regulator with a mechanical fuel pump but never got a answer. Thanks for checkin it out. I wanted to head out to AZ in the morning to get the motor goin but Imma wait a lil bit....

You can run a regulator with mechanical or electric, it has more to do with the fuel pressure your fuel pump outputs so u dont flood ur carb. I just looked the following up for ur carb:

FUEL PRESSURE: This carburetor has been designed to work best at fuel pressures between 5 and 7 psi. Holley recommends 7 psi at idle, and a minimum 4 psi at engine redline.


I just bought a a 600cfm holley but the non double pumper and it recommends the same. and i also got the mechanical holley fuel pump and the pressure output said 7.5psi. I figure thats best case senario and with the filter and gauge it shouldnt go too much over 7 so i was wondering if i should get one also.
