here is a list of things to check. suspension parts ie tie rod ends, ball joints, tc rod, bushings, wheel bearings check the tire for being out of round, wheel damage, balance, lost balance weights check your steering rack for play as well, and the associated bushings, and of course make sure your wheel is attached properly

most use a k and n filter in its place plus it cleans up the engine bay. if you think you might need that or are concerned you could always hook up a catch can for the breather and the block. good luck and get some pics so we can see your new tri carb set up. hehe how do you like the way they sound, nothing like a set of tripples revving up the engine is there:love:

Holley on a Z
your best bet on a stock or even more then stock motor would be the round top su's hands down. personally i wouldnt waste my time and or money doing that conversion. point being why would you want a down draft carb on a motor set up for side draft carburetors. if you do upgrade and go for more power ie boring and working the head and doing the cam, then go triples or beef up the su's stay away from the 4 barrel convert just my .02

valve adjustment wrench?
CRAFTSMAN!! i used to own a set of craftsman tools. they never seemed to fit right and i thought it was me. its not its the wrenches are made poorly. before kobalt changed theyre line i would have recomended them but now theyre new line looks just like craftsman. find a good set of wrenches.

Brake Drama's
my money would be on the booster or the check valve. if you have a vacumn tester you can eliminate rather quickly
