    360 stalls on deceleration from throttle blip

    You can set your idle rpm as low as you like, as long as these conditions are met: - if auto trans, engine doesn't stall or become 'edgy' when put into gear - doesn't stall when braking. Obviously keeping idle rpm as low as practicable saves fuel & saves wear/tear going into gear on auto trans car.

    Carb Advice

    All carbs have some shaft play.....for safety so that the throttles do not bind in the open position. It would be odd that the sec shaft is worn more than the pri because obviously the primaries get more use...

    Crane pushrod quality

    The only engine I ever had any pushrod problems was on a big block Chevy. It chewed the ball ends off of one about every few months.

    Crane pushrod quality

    ^^^^^Had this on new Harland Sharp rockers. Too brittle. These companies probably buy the fasteners from a common supplier.

    Chalky coating

    Agreed, I don't have any dull spots on the collectors so I'll try it out on my other set

    Chalky coating

    Try it on a small spot of the collectors that are hidden under the car before doing the whole thing. These are mine and it sucks when you drop a grand on a set for this to happen…. Next set is going to be custom stainless, like the bottoms pic.

    Brand new QA1 front suspension and still have steering wheel play?

    I tightened up my pst box just a hair and it made a world of difference. I also had slop and everything was new.

    Okay, thank you ! That stove top cleaner is a great idea, some of those products work amazingly

    Chalky coating

    I wouldn't use steel wool or 3m/scotchbrite. Use an alumina-containing polish like mothers. Cleaners made for glass stove tops are a more liquid version and should also work very well.

    Chalky coating

    I have 2 sets of coated headers, I'll give it a try on my hooker fender well headers. I read on the web and saw photos, I'm not sure if the mother's is the key or if maybe a cleaner wax would work. The other thing I just thought of will be trying a clay bar

    340 Intake Manifold Casting# 2531915 - Upgrade

    66 and 67 take the same intake. 66 had a 273 and so did the 67. Without looking back through 2 pages of posts, what engine is he running?

    Any Pertronix experts here?

    I always run a 1.5 ohm and the ballast resistor on the Pertonix modules. I use to design electronics like this for the defense industry. I can come up with no reason adding extra resistance does anything but good things for the life of the module.

    408 ignition curver advice

    As the cam duration goes up you need to crank up the compression or you loose cranking and dynamic compression which is what keeps the lower RPM torque numbers up. With that cam I’m guessing without doing the math it needs another point of compression to really keep any low RPM torque. Cam...

    340 Intake Manifold Casting# 2531915 - Upgrade

    I am dragging this thread up from the grave only because I got the year wrong when I made the first post. John's car is a 1966 Signet, not a 1967. Still trying to find him a Mopar M1 Dual Plane since he insist it have a choke well. He likes the choke on the AVS. (Cranky Old Guys) Tom
