I’m just trying to live my childhood dreams where it was cool to own a hot rod with dual quads on a tunnel ram. Now that I’m older this generation wants to talk about how cool Teslas are. I’m 44yrs old with an identity crisis, I wanted to grow up in 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s. When women, cars, and...

This whole thread is crazy. **** I would be checking the timing curve for sure I bet that ***** wants upward on 20 degrees initial, if you crank it up, then you need to limit the centrifugal timing to about 15 degrees, for a total around 35. Have the vacuum gauge hooked up. If the idle raises...

Checking in, did you test now that you moved the IFR’s down?

I need to do the same thing. I have a thread where I was tuning all summer with frustration. Could not get it right. where did you get the spinal fluted tap? What size and and part number?

You know I never did, my car is now in the garage for body work. I haven’t really messed with it. I did throw a edelbrock 600cfm just to see a difference and it appeared to still be rich with a lot of hydrocarbon smell. I want to verify that my balancer is still good at TDC with a piston stop...

I haven’t ever seen this set up before. Kind of cool.

Mine does the same thing I think it has to do with it having a good ground and 12v source.

I put the 600vs slayer on mine and it' been a pain to get it to stop idling so rich. Besides that its runs good. The slayer is the cheapest version, single metering block. You probably should step up to a better version with 4 corner idle.

360 comp cam .454 lift. 19" vacuum I also put a 8.5PV in I haven't been messing with my carb lately but I am going to try one more adjustment to .020 on the IFR's. I went from burning your eyes rich to not much smell of gas now just trying to get it spot on. What i found with just changing the...

I've been dealing with the same carb and curb idle adjustments at 1.5 turns out A/F(running rich). I started changing air bleeds both primary and secondary with little success. I'm having better luck going to smaller IFR's idle fuel restrictions on the metering block. I went from whatever the...

Sorry bad picture 34-600SL-BLK yes its dual feed.

I used this one works like a charm with 5/16 rubber hose to the fuel pump. I have the 600cfm slayer that im in the process of tuning right now.

Just because I'm curious tomorrow I will drill my IAB to 3/32 or .094" the next size bit I have. If my AFR doesn't change I'll put my original .073 back in then order new IFRs go from .029 down to .025. I also want to try lowering my float level. It's right in the middle of sight glass. My fuel...

I'm at a loss right now. Should I attempt to open the secondary throttle blades to get more air in the carb? everything I read says to keep secondary closed on VS carbs.

Something is definitely up with this carb. Maybe blown PV or something. My transition slot is squared up on the primary and closed on the secondary. I just tested the car went from 73# to 76# then 79# on the IAB's made hardly any difference at all. Do you know what size IFR's come with these...

I tried verifying the proper adjustments for my carb. For every step forward I seem to run into something. As you guys may know tropical storm Cindy has been hammering the southeast. So instead of me going outside to verify my idle air bleeds size. I decided to pull the specs of my carb of...

I appreciate the input guys. Sounds like im about to chase a rabbit down a hole. Originally I was going to jet down the mains from 68's to 66's. Thinking it would lean out my rich condition. But as it turns out its just at idle and highway cruising above 60+MPH's. 40/50 mph is about perfect. As...

You guys were dead on with the advice. At idle the AFR is in the 11's (rich) slowly leaning out with speed...(idle air bleeds). At 40-50 mph at steady cruise I get high 14's low 15's (Optimal Main jet). Beyond the 50 mph up to 70 mph it begins to fating up rich again. Running down the highway...

Ok guys I appreciate the input. I do my research on the air bleeds. At the moment I believe those are the jet looking t Appreciate that pista i read the Air bleed Basics. Aaron I will take a test drive as you described taking readings at prescribed MPH and see what I get. Thanks again. The...

67dart273, I did originally set it with a vacuum guage got my highest reading which did raise the idle. Thats when I set the idle down to 750rpm. Idle good but at a rich condition I'm now at the point were I believe my mains are to big. Which using the AF guage in my opinion confirmed. Once I...

I been tuning my car for sometime now. Its tough being new to an unfamiliar engine and components as we build these cars (novice). The deal is everything is somewhat new to me. New dist., cam, carb, exhaust, ect. It ran like a turd. I re-curved the dist. light springs and made a little more...

I put this on a 72 360 and got 6.5psi on my gauge.

auto zone has them for 17.00 just bought one last week its made by delphi It says made in america on the box. Don't be discourage by the arm being different mine went on and worked flawlessly and for the price i thought it was a good deal. The one on the left is the new delphi obviously.

Just finished my 67' barracuda with the spectra tank and 5/16 sending unit. Was easy and the guys on here gave great advise. I had the same problem with the locking ring so "SAVE THE OLD ONE" The one that comes with the tank does not press tight enough against the sending unit and rubber gasket...

Thanks for the support guys. I feel more confident now tackling this job. My temp gauge, and oil pressure still work so that's a good sign. Hopefully, it is just the ground strap problem. Update: Tank is out and nasty I see why my fuel gauge isn't working there's no float and its not in the...

Hello guys, I am looking at removing the gas tank from a 67 barracuda slant six to install a new one along with the a new 5/16 sending unit. My question is how do I get to the bolts that hold the gas tube on? They seem to be hard to get to under the rear trunk panel for lack of better terms...

Did you find the solution yet? I also have a 67' fastback and have the same problem. Except I'm replacing the whole tank. The bad gas almost destroyed my fresh head I put on. My car was also originally white black right now but was thinking of painting back white again. Do you have any pics...
