Not planning on anything super-mondo, just something other than the
Ford Holley emissions carb presently -on- the Pantera. I can't really
tune it properly because of the design. I need to get a -real- Holley
a modern one. A 650 would be fine. I just need to do some research.
If all else fails, the one on the Pantera will probably be just fine.
