Brian, I didn't mind your "babbling" as you put it. It makes me glad that I never ran the pump. I had heard a lot about them leaking and going bad. I have the Holley350 on my car. For the carburators, I still look at Pro Stock (love the class) and how they are running in the "King Demon Crown", but I haven't seen BG carbs on the cars. Maybe I missed it and they have them.
