About the automatic choke comment. I have to respectfully disagree. The choke has problems, mostly because during a rebuild those who rebuild them do not check the choke pull offs, the little vacuum

It's not the pressure from the water pump that will burst the core, it is the static pressure buildup from the high temperature and the relief valve on the radiator cap. 15 PSI will burst the OEM rad

Hi Brian Your core should be fine as long as you use a low pressure cap on the radiator, don't use one of those 13 or 14 lb caps they sell for late model systems. I have the same situation as you an

I never really appreciated the looks of a long bed until I took a look at my cousins ground up restoration of his 1970 Chevrolet Fleetside. I mean this truck was beautiful and like you said...." the

I cannot say anything about the quadrajet, but as for the long bed I have to agree that I like them. They may not look as sporty or as good with the 'down in the dirt' look, but I like them. Several

I agree on the long beds ... I have a 1958 3200. I subframed mine, so it has a little wedge look to it. I think the length only adds to look. When it's all done I picture it as one mean looking beast

Only thing wrong with a longbed is that I only have about 2" of space behind it to close my garage door. Of course I could move some of the junk in front of it. Bill 57 GMC 102 (89" bed) I agree on t

The Quadrajet is the best ever engineered carb out there. It is the most tunable carb, too. that is where the trouble comes. People tinker with them like some do their Harley's who does not understan

I have a 57 3200. That 8 foot box is sure handy for a working truck. IMHO, if you're in this for the investment, you're in the wrong hobby. If it appeals to you, go ahead with it. I sure like mine. I
