Running rich
I have a small block Ford that has several issues. The first that is it runs rich, and I can smell the gas that it's wasting when it's running. The other is that it bogs down when you step on it. It's running a Holley 650 4-barrel on it. It seems to bog when it's warm out, but it's a little more noticeable when it's cool out (below 60 degrees)
Also, related to carburation, etc. - what will adding an Endelbrock manifold buy me? Is is more looks than performance? Also, I see several manifolds listed for the Ford 302 - which one is good for street use. Like the aluminum manifold to dress things up a bit - but also looking to see if I can get a little added performance.

In our neighborhood, 2 blocks down the hill was a gas station that (to me) all the cool car guys hung out there. 32 coupes, 33 & 34 Fords as well, a sweet 56 Ford Beach wagon that was setup gasser...
How did you get hooked on cars?
