Just picked up a 1977 Chevy Shortbed with a 350 small block and turbo400 with a race kit and posi.
Should get it off the truck this morning. Will post pictures later.

I will have to learn how to tune the carb & set the timing, because Ive never owned a carbed vehicle, and I was about 6 years old the last time I saw my Dad & brother using a timing light!

     Welcome from California, what are you taking off your truck ?

Im not taking anything off the truck; it was being delivered by car transport and potentially unloaded for delivery.
