Hi guy, Well its time for this good ole pickup to get 8 cylinder instead of 7. She has a vin #218 1343975 and been to New York and Mexico in her day a couple of times. I feel sorry for my landlord for the ride. New when they got her. I'm here in Bozeman, Montana and she pushes around the snow

Thanks guys for the quick response's. Much appreciated.
The Engine is; V8 318-I “A†(polysphere), obviously for to say that. The trans is manual. Note taken on the motor mounts.
Now, I don't know what the intake is other than whatever was installed factory.
Regulator, would that be just getting one via NAPA or O'rielly here? After thoughts? I did either replace, or just put one in about 8 years ago that made a difference the way she runs now.
If the original two barrel and intake would work, I could just swap them out if that would work. I just...thought...the four barrel intake would be easy to deal with, finding the 'Wieand' carb at a yard here. Whatever is good for now, what with the weather. Looks like I'll have about a three day window in a few days to git'er done outside. The proper clutch (kit) is also a main issue to me. Sure, I could/would swap out the two pressure plates, but as it is...possibly the original, I'd just as soon do a whole kit replace.
Truly thanks, Dan
