Hi Guys, Old thread, but I'm having the same issue. I just picked up an 80 Suburban with 60k miles and the hood sits high at the back and rattles...
If you google image search dual carb 235, there are lots of cool project ideas. Offenhauser makes a cool one. :)
Beautiful. That's my favourite colour combo. Combined with a 235 and dual exhaust, it makes my heart go pitter-patter. If she's got dual carbs...
