The monte carlo 4.3 pump got installed and wired this past week..so I could run it and work the bugs out...We finally OFFICALLY fired it up and drove it tonight...

I hate to say it..but this little f'er runs better than my old 455...

Then your 455 had some serious issues. :wink:

Glad everything worked out for you Doug.

It might have been the outdated Edelbrock cam or just the fact it was tired...

I hope that 455 isn't tired. It's sitting in my son's 80 Cutlass! :shock:

For what it was it ran pretty good but compared to the 403 that motor had way more nuts....

It wasn't exactly low mileage when I originally bought it.. I just freshened it up and dropped it in..
