Does the small bumper swap really make a diff?

Just got through with the small bumper swap, well still have some aligning but thought I would post a before and after, do they really make a diff....Duh, I would say so............ Oh, and tossed in a pic of a bad azz carb for those who don't know, lol.
Seriously, we are very pleased with the performance out of this carb, great street manners and kick open that goggle vavle and KA-BOOMMMMMM

 

Kudos.
That's the best thing you ever could have done (cosmetically) for that car.

 

And you didn't even started with a large one, it was the slighty bigger one! It makes huge difference. Looking good!

 

Big improvement!

 

small bumper or no bumper is the way to go.

 

I sure like the over all stance of the car. Nice job on the selection of wheel/tire combo. Looks very nice.

 

I was shocked the first time I saw the revised version of the Thermoquad! I thought that carb was dead and gone forever but here it is back in all it's glory.

 

Are you kidding?? It sits like a 4x4. I'm glad they are planning to lower it.

 

I guess it comes down to personal prefernce. Much like choosing baby blue for a paint job.

 

Love the small bumpers. A front bumper and early front and rear bumper mounts were the first thing I purchased for my new 73 project

I'm not even a fan of the small big front bumper of the 73, not to mention how the rear bumper sticks out.

 

We are planning on lowering it, however it does have a certain appeal as it sit's I must agree and the wheel's came on it when we bought it but they are some of the best for that car...American Racing Torque Thrust I believe is what they are appropriately called for anybody interested in them, not bad in price less than $200 each from what I recall.

 

Yeah and I don't know if it is just us but the 72 rear bumper bolted right up in place of the 73, didn't have to add or change anything, is that normal?

 

I believe they bolt up, but stick out farther than normal. Yours looks like it sits like a 70-72 [ flush]

 

I have heard people call it the thermoquad and I agree it look's like it but according to everything I read and all the video's I watched on it before buying it is that it's a good bit diff internally from the old thermo, and I also thought it was a Demon as the name on it implies, however it's made by Holley
