6 pack tuning
Thank you very much for posting this information! I bought a 6 pack set up a few weeks ago that looked to be all intact with all the correct pieces. Cleaned up the intake and carbs and followed a lot of the posted baseline tuneup and it fired right up and settled down to a nice 850 rpm idle. Left everything with the “as I bought it” look along with the patina air filter cover to match the rest of the car. It came with a K&N filter so that’s a plus. Still have a small bog I need to work on but it’s 80% there and it’s good enough for me. Installed an AEM wideband meter and it’s showing 11.5 idling and 12.5 - 13.0 on the freeway so I think it’s pretty close. It only heats up to around 170 so it needs a stat. It hits pretty hard and pulls like crazy. The only mod needed was to cut a small notch to clear the wiper motor. Even my hood closes with no hood mods. Took it to a Wendy’s cruise night last Saturday and the looks on people’s faces are pretty hilarious. It’s the next best thing to a Hemi.
