Russ,
Couldn't agree more with Mr. Manning! I was advised from the Guy who does
my Dyno work that 45's are way to big. Bigger is not always better!! I was
thinking the same thing you were because I'm thinking of building a 1500, so
I didn't want to have to buy another set of carbs. 40's seems to be the
choice! Set some time & money aside and get it dyno'd. It takes all the gues
work out and you have a baseline when you need to rejet! Good Luck!
