Really day to day I don't mind my carb. Sustained rough roads mess with it but when it starts acting up I am slowing down anyway so it isn't really a bother, off camber stuff it has never faltered but it is always there in the back of my mind... and of course elevation.
But pretty much every...
Lol, he didn't want to spend $400 on a truck avenger... they have about doubled since then.
He has a lot going on, still working my way thru though his thread.
I have a one piece fuel filter and already have the fuel line in the bowl vent. Currently have a red Holley pump but will be swapping...
Talking about going out west next year... and a second kid on the way kinda dashed my hopes for a Holley Sniper before then.
Any tips/pointers on keeping a carb happy at high elevation? Like up to 12k feet.

Heated seats, I use them year round. After dragging around semi truck parts all day it feels awesome on my back.
To go one step farther i wish the seat itself could be toggled off so then just the back is heated. When it's 100* and my back is sore having the seat bottom heated doesn't do...
I get so sick of the power seats in my F-150. Every time I get out I bump the lever thing to lay the back seat down. Bump it 3-4 times and it becomes very noticeable.
My '02 with manual seats... they stayed where I put them.
I'd hardly call that "stuck" lol. Add in a split bench and you have my truck.
I like my collum shift, with a auto you put in gear and drive, I don't need the thing taking up space in a console to just sit there.
Once upon a time there was a much larger price spread... I ought to play with it again to see if there is something different between Canada and US though.
I was poking at it early this year and I don't think PW was an option, just a trim.
My newest tractor was built in 1953, I farm 6 acres with it and push snow with it. They don't rust out, a little TLC now and then and they last forever.
I can't wait to get back into a Supercab F-150. Supercrew with a functional sized bed is so big and unwieldy.
There is no way I would want to recreationally offroad a half ton.
Multifunction tailgate does effect tonneau covers if you were thinking about one of those. Not all accommodate that option, same with Rambox if you are of that persuasion.
Etorque became standard in the last couple years of the hemi.
Dust intrusion is like where your cab fills full of dirt when you drive on unpaved roads. Very strange, I have no idea what their problem is. My old F-150 with no cab corners and the sills rotted off the bottom of the doors stayed...
It would be fun to run them beside each other, I very much preferred my 02 F-150 with a 5.4 for towing over my '16 with a 5.0. The 02 had a superchip tuner, the factory shift strategy was inspired by 1970's Cadillac.
'16 is a better platform but the 5.4 is a truck engine and ran like it...
The newer cab the 2019+ half ton uses can have dust intrusion issues. 2500+ still uses the older cab which we never had dust issues with.
Hemi has typical Hemi fun, lifter tick/cam issues, cracked exhaust manifold/hardware.
Regular oil changes seems to help lifter issues.
Hemi is no longer...
