Last week we did the brakes. actually we replaced one hard line to the rear axle, bled the cylinders and set the tensionors up. Really nice brakes now.

I also tuned the 4 barrel holley, the elect choke was dialed way too lean for winter use. And the idle mixture was way too fat. I cut and shortened the throttle linkage rod so now I can get a full pull on the carb with the gas pedal. I hung the plow/frame on the old truck, hooked up the hoses and topped off the fluid. We don't need much more snow and I can give it a test run.
