got a question For those that have had either Carb set up on their FORDs...just set a low mileage nice 391 in the 1975 Grain truck It has a 4 and 2 tranny ,, salvage yard thinx 4V Holly carb needs a rebuild .. Although started and run often in the last 10 years it has seen little real action ,and No doubt the Holly has GUNKY issues and needs a rebuild ... Last DEC, We jusT rebuilt the 2 V on my 330 . And That Truck really run fine and smooth until it let loose a rod . Dangit !.. Will I get better mileage with the Holly if I have it rebuilt and set by a expert ?Or should i just swap intake manifolds and run with my sweet 2 V ?.. i know the 4V will deliver more HOSS, which is not a big issue for Me ,,. I would rather have fuel mileage,,B-I-L suggests that 4V may be more economical for my runs .. I run 50-55mph on a nice easy 45 mile round trip to the elevator. The most I can get on it is 320 Bu of corn , I don't plan to make long hard runs.. thanx for your advice .. jh
