Beautiful 4ac!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BUT, you MUST carefully remove those plug wires and clean them or get some really cool NGK wires (which come numbered as well).

I <3 NGK wires.

Just 1 vac line here.

And dont even think about removing those vac lines! They are what make the carb work, and self adjust. You would have to do alot of capping off and even then, might not get it right.

Just get a 32/36 weber off ebay for a few $ and call it a day.

Be sure to get the progressive! Not the vacuum advance junk.
