Default Re: Replacing Teapot carb on 1956 T-bird

I’ve heard that it is much easier to keep the modern carbs adjusted and running well. I am only looking for a decent driver, not a fully restored or show car. I thought that by keeping the correct intake and distributor and keeping the rebuilt Teapot for any future purchaser or if I change my mind, this could be a good choice. I am not an experienced mechanic and am figuring this out as I go along. The experience of fixing a lot of problems with this bird including new engine, transmission, front suspension, brakes, etc. has been interesting and somewhat satisfying, but I doubt I will ever want to go through this again.
