    I vote for 2150 on the car, and the VV in a box on the shelf.

      haters gonna hate. lol. Rebuilding it was quite easy, just waiting on a new float now and it will go all back together. I'll keep you guys updated on the results

      Summit apologized for the inconvenience and said they would take the headers back and send me new ones free of charge! This time i will be checking them with a straight edge right out of the box.

        im not a hater but, if a 2150 will be the long term solution, i would do it. my car had a VV that was untouched for 25 years. im one of the lucky ones lol.

          I'm hoping the rebuild will be a long term solution...I have a ton of diagnostic paperwork, schematics, and theory for the VV carb. The big problem is most people have no idea about the system and don't want to bother (i really don't blame them, throwing on the 2150 carb is a lot easier). Diagnostics aren't that hard if you have the trouble shooting paperwork with specs and tests for everything.

          The carb was never rebuilt as far as i know, however the diaphragms were replaced, as the service hole was drilled for the one.

          By was untouched does that mean you now have something else on there? haha

            when i say untouched, i mean just that. only thing ever replaced was the fuel filter. it was never removed or rebuilt. only thing that was done to the carb from new, was the choke was disconnected. got great gas mileage too, except on humid days lol.

                Don't be ridiculous, if this engine blows, it's a whole other ball game.

                      New update! I got a few NOS door handles, 2 more left to go. However I found what I have been looking for for 5 years now!! A NOS strip-less bumper! I thought the cost was reasonable and shipping was only $25! I can't wait to get it in the mail. Pictures will follow
