I think Sat is supposed to rain early now. I've got to run up to Dulles for some parts/supplies and then I'll be back around 2-3. Got a guy coming to look at the '87 as well. I could have him meet me at your place if needed though, lol.

As for the carbs. I personally prefer holley, but the dellorto is a good system too. As MC said, you'll probably spend a bit more on the jets and tuning the carb. If you go that route, I would place a quick call to RB and see what jets they recommend/sell for a stock port 12A. Keep the old jets out of the carb for future builds. Holley jets are cheap and you can pick 'em up at Boyd's in town. Same w/ squirters...

I need to finish up the first wheel and then I can start on the rest. You still picking up your engine on Sat?
