There is a massive Corvette junkyard in the Western United States. It's exact location is a closely guarded secret.
It where abouts are known only to those that own late 70's or early 80's POS GM heaps.

Don't mistake advice for critisism. If you honestly think that engine needs that much carb,then more power to ya...it's your engine.
