I channeled the intake manifold and just have to plug up a hole where the
rod for the butterfly come through. I also clean up the intake a bit but I want
to media blast it before final assemply. I may clear coat it to keep it nice looking.
Did some work on the throttle cable bracket and removed some things to simplify
it a lot. No pic of that yet.
Worked on the throttle body but had a hard time getting the secondary butterfly
screws out. I tried heat and that didn't help, so I'm soaking in PB blaster and
will give it a go later this week. Any tips on removing those screws would be
great. Hate to have to drill em out.
Also worked on the carb body some. I trimmed the arms off of the primary and
secondary venturis and polished them a bit. Also ground down and polished
the chokes as well. Didn't ream them too much but I may do some more later.
I haven't shortened the oil inject tubes but I did pull them out a bit as they
were almost right up against the small center venturis in the primaries.
