I'm still working on fine tuning the AED 950 carb with a wideband, but I gotta say I'm surprised at how docile and smooth the motor is. I can putt this thing around town in 4th gear at 2,200 rpm. It makes 8 inches of vacuum at idle and the power brakes work fine (as does the PCV system). It's just not something you'd expect from 14:1 compression,

So here's the next round of upgrades... I was very impressed with the fitment of the Hooker 2105 headers so I decided to try Hooker's complete 3" stainless exhaust system. Hooker even makes headpipe adapters to their headers so this should be as close to a direct bolt-in as you can get. I'm not a big fan of absorption-style mufflers, so I ordered a custom set of stainless Spintech mufflers for my install. As soon as everything gets here, we'll see how it all fits up.
