Suggestions/recommendations needed

[moseshoward]

I just purchased a 69 F-100 with a 302 engine. I would like to change the intake and carb on this beast, any suggestions on what brand, size, or location to get said equipment?

After eons of restoring VWs, I'm embarking on a journey to restore a Mans truck! All help is greatly appreciated!!

A good dual plane 4bbl intake and a Holley 600 4bbl with vacuum secondaries will wake a stock 302 up..

Agreed*


A wise man once told me, you build an engine from the inside out. So if you have other plans too (cam, heads, stroker kit ) you should consider those things when picking out your intake.

a set of headers and duel exhaust is a must with a carb intake swap. just an fyi the edlbrock performer is an oe replacement so id go with a performer rpm or a weiand stealth

Oh yeah I'm changing the exhaust, my concern(s) is the carb as my experience is limited to fuel injection, never worked with a carb before. Also noticed most I see on the net have "electrical" choke, mine is a manual, will this work?

Yep. Choke wont matter. I like manuals myself
