    TrickFlow intakes. Not what guys want to see

    I'm thinking that it's not so much that they can't find a foundry to make the intakes, it's that the supply of aluminum is at a premium and the cost has skyrocketed. I'm seeing the lead times on materials go from two weeks to 50 weeks. When they say "50+ weeks", that means that they have no idea...

    318 Stalling at 45 mph

    I'm still trying to figure this one out. Here are some of the things I did: I have new gas in the tank with a carb cleaner. Put the old coil back in. New fuel filter. Took fuel cap off. Is there anyone in the area (Chicago/Schaumburg) who would like to help? If not, does anyond know of a...

    318 Stalling at 45 mph

    Oh yah, when I hit ~45 mph, it stumbles and then I lay off the gas and it won't get back to normal for a few secconds. One or two times, I had to coast to a dead stop and had to let it sit for a minute more before it ran normal again. It never completely died, but no power at all.

    318 Stalling at 45 mph

    It is an ingnitor II and a new Carter fuel pump. The pump is getting 4.5 - 5 psi but I have not checked it while it is under load. I'll check all of the connections and when the snow melts, I'll put the old coil back in, take it for a drive and see what happens.

    318 Stalling at 45 mph

    I have a 1972 318 mostly stock but with Edelbrock Performer manifold and Edelbrock 600 carb. I recently put in a Pertronix coil and electronic ignition system. Since then, I'm assuming that it is related but maybe not, the car sputters and stalls every time at 45 mph. When in neutral or park, it...

    The resistor is a factory 2 prong.

    318 Bogging at 55mph

    The coil instructions said to remove the resistor. I did that but it wouldnt run. When I reconnected it, it started and ran good. The instructions for the elecronic ignition said to keep the resistor. So, it is connected now. Do you think this might be the problem?

    318 Bogging at 55mph

    I have not changed the pick up filter. I don't know if it has ever been changed. Sounds like I will have to drop the tank to do this. I may do this next weekend, unless I get any other suggestions.

    318 Bogging at 55mph

    I have a 72' 318, mostly stock except for Edelbrock performer intake, Edelbrock 600cfm carb, Summit Headers, Pertronics coil and Pertronics electronic ignition. The problem is that every time I get it up to 55 mph it bogs, looses all power but does not die. I slow down and it continues to...

    318 Stalls After Warm Up

    It' has been raining everyday here. Tried it in the garage and did not die. I think it has to be in gear. I will look for vacuum leak Sunday if it's not raining.

    318 Stalls After Warm Up

    I have a 72' 318 that is all stock except for the Edelbrock performer intake and 650 Edelbrock carb. I have new cap, rotor, plugs and wires. It starts up and drives fine until it warms up. Then it stalls when I hit the gas. Any ideas on what to check?
