how do u operate the manual choke ??

well like i said before i lean more towards the holley side when it comes to carbs but i got this setup as a deal together. its a 750cfm and a little to much for what i need. i found a guy on craigslist who was going to trade me his edel 1406 electric carb but as we all know whenever your dealing with craigslist, dreamers and the fakes come out....in other words the guy never came by for the deal. i know the basic tuning of a carb but im not to sure whats the difference of electric vs manual so if anyway knows educate me please :mrgreen:

Like makeup, I got it all covered. I just need some short vid clips of everybody's ride and I can make it happen. Man you passed me right up with this build. I need to get on BS2.0... My plan is to bring it home soon and store the Nova until I widen my driveway. The monte is looking SSweet!!
 
Qdub thanks my boy, I guess that's what I'm going to have to do to get that lid.

@ElcoMel on the YouTube clip stuff I need to send u a old short vid I had of the cutty riding down the block. oh and on brown sug you good that combo of you & chris is like lighting speed when y'all not playin around but Im glad you noticed how I'm moving with this project.....interior wise it's falling together quickly
 
Over the weekend i got a couple other things done to the monte, lets see.
Before shots of the engine, man the exhaust manifolds looked pretty bad with all the rust and pitting on them

i broke out a piece of 60 grit sand paper and sanded them for a good 2 mins just to smooth the surface a little bit.
