Default Re: Carb replacement 1965 GMC 305

Alaroca,

If you have not thought about this already, you might consider modifying the breather to take a dry paper element vs. the steel wool oil bath? Its super simple, just remove all the top housing with a Dremel tool type cutter, leaving the just the top lid. I did that and she still looks like an oil Bath type cleaner.

I did the 2-barrel swap to a Holley 500CFM carb, so the diameter was different, I made a foundation for the lower pan to rest on. If you need any help, ask away.
