minor update but better than none i guess... 253 bolted up to the T700 hopefully for the last time
and a dash to match... it still needs a polish
should have the car back in a week or 2 and hen the fun begins
and to figure out carby choice

Looking good , how much work is done to the 253 ? , my Holley 570 avenger is quite a nice match on my 253 .

pretty stock... double row timing, performer manifold, mild cam thats about it...
i was looking at that one as a option... what been done to yours mate? unfortunately this is one of those things everyone has an opinion on, i used to have a de-jeted 600 on a mid 253 on dual fuel that ran nicely but it was basically setup for gas
i prefer manual choke and vac secondaries

Bored , balanced , bit of head work , custom cam , 10.1 compression , 570 might be a bit big for you then .

Hey Nathan would you have the part numbers for the shifter and the indicator and an idea of the price would be great.
