    Speedmaster intake manifold

    It' not a part of my diet plan either :D :D But once in a while I will crave their salty fries

    Speedmaster intake manifold

    I think in three years the wages have gone up a lot, and prices always follow. I remember 3 years ago the McD's value meals were between 4.49 to 6.49, and the workers got 8.50 per hour. Now they get 14 bucks and the same meals are 9.89.... I'm sure it's what happened to speedmaster also...

    Speedmaster intake manifold

    I got mine 130 shipped to my door. Haven't bought one in a year or two.... I think this year they wanted 180 ????

    Speedmaster intake manifold

    I've used two of these, and have another new one in the box. I did nothing but bolt them on and they have worked great. No leaks, no complaints from me.

    Why run dual quads?

    The dual quads on my 318 were hooked 1 to 1. The car starts, idles and runs unbelievably well whether cruising around town, going down a highway, or smashing it to the floor. I don't know what the exact gas mileage difference was because I didn't check, but by the gage really no big...

    Disappointing dyno results

    I wouldn't buy one single part. I'd start with the absolute tune and verify what you already have. Throwing parts and money can lead to driving cost with greater disappointments. If you find a faulty part or a problem, then make a smart purchase.

    Disappointing dyno results

    I will say this: Many times folks build an engine but trust others for setting everything up. When this happens, the guy tuning/setting it up BETTER know what he's doing. Nothing against your guy, I don't know him. I'm just speaking in general. Usually, the biggest disappointments in power...

    Disappointing dyno results

    It's not too big at all. I'm not saying yours in particular is a good working carb, but the carb in general is not too big

    Disappointing dyno results

    Just reading through this and I was like "his cam is very close to a stock 340 cam".... one is advertised and one is @ 050 ... then I see RRR pointed that out... Carb is not too big.

    Edelbrock springs 1406 and 1405

    I would go to the weakest spring you have for a starter. I would also see if you can pull more initial timing into it. To me, it sounds laboring in the video. Also, if one end of the engine looks to be obviously more rich than the other end, then you might have one carb doing most of the damage

    Do those plugs look like that from idling or driving ?

    Stock '69 318, t-quad vs q-jet vs holley vs edelbrock?

    Factory cast 4bbl intakes work great. They are heavy, but work great. Other than that, a Weiand Action Plus is a great intake, and the edelbrock performer will work good too along with others. As for carbs, I will say this: Get the one YOU feel most comfortable tuning and adjusting. Or...

    Two Barrel to Four Barrel Upgrade?

    The pieces you added are great additions to your 318. I would guess something not right with the carb. Was the carb bought new or used?

    Tuning Street Demon carb

    there is a difference between running it wide open for 12 seconds or holding it wide open for a mile and a half. The factory didn't know how long the car would be wide open.

    Big carb (Quick Fuel 850) on a small engine?

    Up on the RPM's with a down leg booster is a good thing :)

    Big carb (Quick Fuel 850) on a small engine?

    maybe if it was seeing a lot of street time. If it's going to live on the track in the upper rpm's, down leg would be just fine.

    Big carb (Quick Fuel 850) on a small engine?

    You could run it and tune it to work fine, but I don't think it would be optimal size. I think it would be easier to tune a 750 for the project.

    Quick Fuel Brawler vs Proform

    This is what I ordered. QF Brawler 750 Double Pumper. I got a 100 dollars off the list price, bought through Amazon and Jegs was the seller.

    Dual quad info

    I have mine hooked up 1 to 1 (direct). I'm still using the 2bbl linkage, but it could use more "professionalism" in the looks department on the dual quads :) I'm running off the original mechanical fuel pump. I have had zero issues.

    Quick Fuel Brawler vs Proform

    So I gather it's best to buy the cheaper of the two as there is not much difference.

    Quick Fuel Brawler vs Proform

    Holley wasn't one of the options. But thanks.

    Quick Fuel Brawler vs Proform

    WHICH is better and why ??? Quality? Performance? Support? QF is about 100 bucks more than Proform, both drag race series.

    Edelbrock 1406 on 318 jetting

    There is no way for somebody to say "run this jet" and you are good. For the ultimate tune, the engine will have to be tuned according to the engine demands. Other than that, it's pin the tail on the Donkey, you may get lucky and hit the target but probably not. In your case, I agree with...

    4 Barrel

    I'll say it like this: Whatever the issues are, cam, timing, carb setting, bad valves, hole in the piston.... 600 cfm is not to much carb for your engine.

    Mech Fuel Pump Drag Racing 318

    There does come a time, but his stock block 318 with 302 heads, 625 carb and his cam isn't the time of demand. Certainly nothing wrong with upgrading it, but at his build he won't "need" it. I've had more motor and used the stock fuel pump with factory 5/16 fuel line without issue. Many...
