    He just runs right over old farm tractor

    We're not talkin' mound roundin' here, by all appearances, that shoulder/berm looked fairly level...."not knowing what's up-road"....is what it means....there very well may have been good reasons He wasn't on the shoulder, or just had a foolish trust that a totally inattentive douche wouldn't...

    4500 Series carb has idling problem

    While running I always run a long screwdriver down the carb and tap on the butterflies to see if they are really seated.

    Can also be excessive driveline play like u-joints or rear end.

    That's what I was thinking, IF it turns out to be an automatic.

    Could be a poorly adjusted kickdown that is pushed too far back (towards the firewall) for a given throttle position. Post a pic of the setup?

    1960 Valiant Restore: advice welcomed.

    a *good* aluminum radiator is going to cost you dough and might not meet your expectations of what the ideal of the engine compartment should look like. on the other hand, refurbing your stock rad could be a costly proposition as well. if the tanks are good, i'd shop a recore and see if i...

    Is 20W-50 too heavy for my 340?

    Run the thinnest oil you can still hold oil pressure with.

    Man, you are spending money like a drunken sailor.

    nah, he had other ones (supposedly) that he complains about owning in typical wanna be gearhead fashion: too much money for everything, too difficult to get parts. a true five liter fellow, if it ain't easy it's too much.

    the stock trans should shift smoother than the legs on the checkstand girl down at the piggly wiggly. me thinks you needs a service. or maybe just some fluid.

    i see somebody hasn't been following along... bro, we're in like season three already. in this episode, a mid season cliff hanger, we get to see whether DTM gets a car this time, or comes up again with lame excuse as to why the deal didn't happen or some niggling detail about the car he didn't...

    Having 2-3 shift overlap - Thinking of switching from 4.2 apply lever to 3.8 - Thoughts?

    This is one of my favorite torqueflite topics. As we all know the 727 historically can get stuck in two gears at once on the 2-3 shift and cause a bind or overlap. We go to great lengths on our transmission builds to achieve a clean, quick and firm (not harsh) 2-3 shift. There are a lot of...

    I Chose the 383 Big Block

    IDK what your budget is but strongly consider hot tanking the block to clear out any gunk, new freeze plugs & reuse the threaded parts. I know you asked about a cam recommendation but what are your plans for the engine (daily driver, hot street, street/strip, strip, some of each, etc.)? I...

    Solid rollers with off set push rod hole issue.

    Yes you did. And after looking at the other comments and the information given by the OP, I believe you are correct.

    Lean idle. Rich cruise.

    No wonder Holleys run rich. Carter carbs DO run a restriction to the T slot. Carter called it the 'Economizer' [ & patented it ] for obvious reasons. In many TQs I have checked, it varies from 0.046" to about 0.052". Another name for this restriction is the Idle Down Channel. In the Ruggles QJ...

    Pistons

    An F1 piston, one stinking piston costs $50,000. I do not own a vehicle worth that much, and do not envision ever spending that on a vehicle if I could afford it.

    Rear end

    The pics make it look like an 8¼"... no bolt count yet? It could be a Sure Grip (Posi is a GM term as I recall), but it could be suffering from worn out cones. These can be restored by someone who knows what they're doing with some machining. You really couldn't tell that there was only one...
