So this guy who has been helping me suggested I look into this.

This just won't work, right?

I think my local carquest has one of those on the rack for $16...

It will bolt everything up, but it's kind of hard to put a large amount of air and fuel through a restriction that would only allow you to use a limited amount of the carb's flow potential... (it's kind of like buying a 4 barrel and then locking out 2 of the barrels permanently...)...

So in a nutshell... just save your money and get an item that will do the job required of it, you will be thankful later when you won't be asking a lotof questions like why it doesn't tune so well, and how come it doesn't accelerate so well at full throttle.... :wink:

...to say nothing of extreme accelerator and kickdown linkage hassles, air cleaner/bonnet clearance issues, and other "fun" stuff.
