Default Re: 305e Holley 500 swap question

When I did my swap, I just bolted the adapter on and installed the carburetor. made the linkage work, moved the choke to the right side and I was off. Truck starts easier, runs smoother and best of all the carb is jettable if need be. I went from 1 size smaller jet, back to stock as my mileage went down after going smaller.
+1 on the vacuum port plugs, seems most issues I have had with swap deal with the port plugs disintegrating and allowing air into process. If your mileage or performance takes a sudden dump check them first.
