    BBC 396 wil not idle with any carb

    Hey, Long time squarebody owner, 1977 K10 and 1974 K5 blazer, both are restoration projects. It looks to be a long road for me, but I am ready. Bought the 77 brand new and my father left his 74 when he passed. Both have been sitting for 10 plus years unused. Wish me luck!!

    Instrument cluster lights
