  1. There are any number of online "CFM calculators" that will tell you a 500 is more appropriate than a 600 for a mild to moderate 302. I agree. One of our drivers is a lightly modified 5.0 I put a 500 cfm Edelbrock on years ago. I don't plan on ever changing it unless I decide to make the car a full-on racer. At one time that car was my wife's daily driver and had a 2100 on it. The old carb had worn throttle shfts and instead of messing with it I threw on a stock intake and the 500. Wife was not at all thrilled when she saw it but begrudgingly drove it. She's one of those people who only puts $10 or so in the tank at a time. Within a week she had already noticed she had to put less gas in the car and decide she liked that carburetor just fine. I like it too but it doesn't seem to get very good mileage when I drive it. The rear tires seem to wear a bit more too. Can't imagine why.
  2. Sent you a PM a little while back. No answer yet. I'd kind of like to buy this.
  3. Also remarkably similar to the late 1980's Ford Ranger boots I junkyard scrounged to use on my other car (a '67). I don't remember the diameters but do remember for some weird reason each end was a different size and I had to hunt some slightly odd sized hole saws to get them fitted. This particular one is now jammed pretty full with wires for the speaker, power locks, courtesy light, and the remote mirror cable. They may or may not be good for a '69. My need for some on mine is so very far down the road I haven't even looked at the area.
