Default Re: Island dwellers attend Swap Meet

The manifold is down at the shop. I will look for the mismatch in the morning. Does it have to do with the hollow passages in the carb's base? Also on the distributor, I was under the impression that the stock 8ba distributor didn;t work with the GM carb. The vac advance can appears to be ford style so really it just has one more set of points, but maybe not compatable with the GM carb? Confusing.
