Carb is tuned perfect. One pump, *click* vwroom. doodoodoodoodoodoodoodoo.
No more feathering. I adjusted the choke pulloff on a cold start until the engine idled the best. Seems to have worked. Was 40* when I moved it for the roofers. Starts like new.

They're calling for snow here in NY this week too. :cautious:
Got the 85 almost back together after paint.

Took Twisted Betty out for the the last time this year. Was a good ride. Now it’s time to start some various projects on her over winter. Lol.

Finally got ford 9 inch in the car. Went with a 370 gear that matches up quite well with the Muncie. Wayyyy more fun to drive. Had a some issues with a couple of mis-machined yokes from the factory and the emergency brake hook up. Still not happy with it but will use it and think about it some. I went 2 inches wider and installed a rear sway bay. Handling improvement is very noticeable. Did the rear disc swap and braking has improved. performance unlimited has a great product and service but they did stumble with initially sending me a stock width rear end and the yokes. I think they also could do a better job with the emergency brake hook up as we had to adapt Ford Explorer brake cables to it. All in all I am happy and just need more horsepower
