OK. Time to report results. 77 degrees today, low humidity. Took a nice long ride, got it nice and warm. idles at 1150RPM as usual, 13.5 AFR. Good. I do know big(ish) cams like a bit of rich idle. Next, cruising on dead level road, 45 MPH around 2800, AFR mid 12's. 65 MPH, 3300 RPM 12.8 to...

10-32, 3/16 long did the trick for me. just tapped 3/16 into the body, so they'd be snug. getting it back together shortly.

Done. At least it's a start. all four corners starting at .070, since they were so HUGE. I didn't realize once the throttle plate is off, that T slot hole has no communication with the carb body other than the bottom . Easy peasy. blew them out......little brake clean. Nice and tidy. Will keep...

Hope so... carb all apart, everything I need coming tomorrow from good old McMaster Carr. Think I'll try starting at .065. As you suggested.

Thanks, T. I'll check them out. Might just make my own.

Hi guys! Years ago someone was making and selling 10 degree bushings for the MSD billet distributors. Anyone know if they're still available?

Man I just hate the thought of drilling into that aluminum body. Chips everywhere! Also, do I really need to do the secondary too?

to continue, measured my T slot orifice and was shocked. The pic shows a 060 and 055 pin gauge in there. so it's .115 or so. Seems pretty friggin big if ya ask me, but who knows. Since I'm so rich at cruise RPM, what size should I restrict it to? No idea where to begin.

Well well well. I jetted down the primary from 82 to 77. took a little ride and now cruising at 2600 RPM, level flat ground, I'm now in the 12.4 range. From the 10's. BUT upon brisk acceleration on the primaries only..... BANG! in the 15 range and higher. so take it easy bring it home, and I...

Well, I did machine a bushing for my MSD distrib that should be around 10 degrees. The 18 that they provide(the least amount), is way too much. I think. I don't know how this thing would idle at 15 degrees initial. Cam is solid roller .668/.668 259/265 . Might try it. Can't hurt.

Awesome! That's some skill there, brother.

why on earth does Holley put big main bleeds in? Every carb I've worked with is at least ,030 from the factory. Befuddling! Also. why put a curve in the dist when I'm almost always above 2700RPM? I mean we're talking about close to 600 on the engine dyno. Probably more now with the upgraded...

Think I'll start with .070.

Can you get there without tubing the bolt holes? I've been running pushrod oiling for years now and think it's a better system. But i am curious.

This is exactly what I was thinking, but how much? I believe my PV restrictors are .062. Factory.

Main bleeds are 34, from the factory.. But now I'm confused. I do know smaller bleeds will pull more fuel (I thought). I need less fuel at cruise.

I revived this post as I'm having a similar problem. running an XP850 and perfect at idle, perfect at WOT, but pig rich at cruise. Like 11 to 1 ish. Light 4 speed car with 4:30 gears. Timing locked at 33 degrees. Tried changing air bleeds, P Valves....all for naught. Jetted primary from 84 to...

pretty good numbers. My old Eddy's just came back from a professional porter who just retired from a big name company. I got lucky to get his name. They also have the 2.08 intake. I ran them a couple years as ported by my local machinist. The new guy also did my S Victor. wish I had taken better...

Sold, pending payment to Midnight Swinger. 64mopar 2nd SbeeMan 3rd Thanks everybody!

OK Mr, 64mopar. If M. Swinger doesn't confirm by midnite.....they're yours.

I have for sale, a pair of Trick Flow heads. Unmolested, as new from the factory. I ran them 1 summer. They are part # TFS-61411T784-COO. This is their top end line, with titanium retainers, good for .700 lift cam. Also included is a set of Trick Flow studs, nuts and washers. They are ready to...

I have one in my shed from a 73 Ramcharger 360. Factory. So we know they came with one.

Well it all sounds great, but I guarantee those 5/16 pushrods are gonna flex at high RPM. Been there, done that.

no overheating problems at all. just like to get back that 35HP or so that an engine driven fan sucks. Dyno doesn't lie.

Hi guys! decided to go to electric fan and worried about my alternator. Currently have a NAPA rebuilt that I bought for a 71 Dart with A/C. Don't have A/C, but run an in tank fuel pump. No fancy stereo, no power anything. The fan I'm looking at draws 25 amps. So...... will my current alt be enough?

Ah crap! I forgot to ask. Are good ole Yellow Rose and JPar still the best of buddies?

Thank you guys! I have updated the old stroker, sometimes because I had to. Other times I just wanted to.

Thank you sir. Great to be back!

Man it has been a long time since I've posted, so I wanted to say a GIANT hello to everyone, on my favorite sub-forum. Hope all you old friends are well and Hi to some news guys. Between the pandemic and a couple hiccups, time seems to have been limited. But I'm glad to have a handle on life...

Inbox emptied and PM sent. Err, I mean I started a conversation.:lol:
