If you are looking at an auto put it in high range drive with your foot on the brake as hard as you can in a straight line to make sure the transfer ...

A 350 holley wont run on a 1.3 or 1.6. A 350 holley is too big for a 202 Holden red motor to run correctly. 180 Holley is still too big for a zook, and why would you they are as good as a siphen hose into the manifold when you place them on any angle. Webber is a much better choice but still keep it ...

I know if the butterfly is held open the vehicle lacks light ...

for a sierra there is no difference just mounting points on a B block which is used for a SF type swift otherwise all the same in the engine block. Difference between an A abd B engine is the crankshaft and piston pin hight. The A pistons are less likley to get piston slap and dont tend to break ...
