I grew up in Stamford. Might be moving back there sometime in the near future. Nice Dart.
 
Looking for someone in my area that's decent with Carbs that don't mind helping a carb novice out.
 
I live in Shelton Connecticut. I have a Holley 650 Double pumper I want to put on my car but I need some help adjusting it.
 
How about this - put the carburetor on and see how it runs. Do you know how to set the floats, transfer slots and idle speed? If you don' know how to do those things, Holley has some real basic instructional videos on YouTube for pretty much anything you would need to know.

Is the car in your signature what you are working on? What engine is in it? Try to be as specific as possible with specs and information, it will help you get the answers you need.

Also, since this is the "North East" forum and you are replying to a "Fairfield County Roll Call Thread", you probably won't get much help with your issue since it has zero to do with the original intent of the thread.

So, install the carb, watch some videos, drive it around and if there are still things you need help with, start a new thread in the appropriate air/fuel systems forum where your question will get more views.

Mike, Sounds like a blast, but it's going to be a little bit before my car can make a trip to the Manchester area. Because of the gearing I just drive it around town for now. I need to do some work to it to make it more streetable. Once I'm there i'll look you guys up. If you find yourself down in the Valley look me up!
