Well I am having some mechanical issues. I just noticed I have 3 leaks around the transmission. Some of y'all know I am having some shifting issues and I guess the tranny is at fault. It never leaked before. I drove it around the neighborhood and shifting is worse. The carburator is a 4 barrel Edelbrock. I don't like the 4 barrel and want to replace it with either fuel injection, OEM or Weber, though I have read negative things about Weber. The carb has been an issue since I have had it. Runs very very rich and I found that the choke was open. Fixed that and I had less fumes in the cab but still pretty strong. The engine always reved high and never relaxed. Needs adjusting but all of a sudden it idles better now almost to the point to where the engine cuts off. Under acceleration in first and second I get tons of hesitation. I was considering the OEM but I don't have any of the original parts. NONE. All I have is the 4 barrel carb and a Offenhauser intake. I don't know where to begin. i figure the OEM set up would cost way to much and may as well go with FI. I am having a problem finding a mechanic around here that has experience with these things. I have been told different things by 3 mechanics.
Oh and my breaks are locking up now. If I apply any pressure to the breaks the rear drums seam to be locking up causing me to skid. Never did that before with lots of pressure applied.
