318 2bbl Rebuild
So it has been a while since I updated this post. A lot of work has been done. The engine was completely rebuilt by a local machine shop. Thanks, Clarks Automotive. The rebuild was very mild. I went with a stock cam and minor boring. I kept the 2 bbl intake and Carter carb, thinking that I wanted to keep everything stock.
After the rebuild, I went with a new exhaust system from TTI. Switched over from that tiny stock single exhaust to a fat 2.5-inch H-pipe but kept the stock manifolds. The sound is freaking amazing. Now I'm thinking I probably should have bumped it up in the rebuild (Cam, porting, and boring), but oh well.
I am thinking of swapping out the 2 bbl BBS for the 4 bbl option. I already have an Edelbrock performer 4 bbl intake. I’m trying to decide what the best option for carb might be. I'm thinking an AVS2 650 (1906). Should I stick with points, or should I upgrade as well?
Just wondering what you all think I should do? My budget for this part of the build is around 1K. Go ahead, spend my money!
