    No fuel in carb at start up

    Nope, I got them at Walmart. I don't remember how much but it was around 15 bucks or so I think. In a white and green box. 40w

    Shouldn't he hook vacuum advance to front carb vacuum fitting? That's where Mines hooked up. Manifold vacuum is constant right? Where carb vacuum increases with rpm increase. I might be wrong about this tho. If I am continue and ignore me. Lol

    Everything looks good to me. I don't have any vacume hoses to my water outlet on the intake but, it's not wrong. I just prefer not to have it on my truck.

    Motor Mounts for 454

    I swapped a 305 with a 454 and used old brakets with no problems in my 82. Drove it Saturday. Long tubes too. Nothing rubs. Did put bb front springs in too.
