Do you have a qualified engine builder helping you? I ask because going to 1.6 rockers may be an easy solution. It will simulate a more aggressive cam but you need to have sufficient piston to valve clearance. Will let you keep your carb too.

Yes that little dimple prevents the filter from closing off the inlet by going to far. Tough to see but I kinda flared the end to prevent it slipping off the end also.

Reinstalled and filled 1/2 tank and got a full steady stream at the carb. (and no leaks). Shes a happy camper now.

When I removed the sending unit, I noticed the sock was all the way down against the flat end of the inlet. It must have moved from the vibration cause it worked fine for years. The sock has a sealed end to it for some reason. I remember the original sock being mesh on the sides and ends. So...

A little background. A few years ago I rebuilt my fuel system. New tank, sender, Holley blue fuel pump, regulator, fuel line, filter, carb, everything. Going for a ride to celebrate fathers day with the family, car stutters and acts starved for gas! Limp it back home at 30 mph (while I get...

Guess you don't need that if you are assembling a demon from the factory!

Have a new gasket on order, hopefully will make it a bit more tunable.

That aint all. May be hard to see but the float level is supposed to be set at 1.01" Its actually at 1.142 and the other side was worse.

Got a new street demon 625 for my 360 and have been trying to tune it since. recently discovered a fuel leak by the choke, so I watched a utube video on the insides and this is what I found.

I called and sent an email but no reply to either. With so many businesses folding I don't want to just send it and hope. Right now its at work in a box ready to go out. It was working perfectly but I dont want to open the tank more than necessary. Got a Spectra in there now, been in about 3...

My sending unit works but its original. I want to get it rebuild so I don't have to worry for another 50 years. 69 Barracuda. Tried to contact John Wolf but no reply. Any other suggestions? Thanks

I think the only real concern is if flakes come off and clog things further down the line. I think anything dissolvable by gas would be so diluted it wouldn't be an issue. I would throw a few nuts and small bolts in the tube and shake the hell out of it and see what flakes come out.

You can drill and tap JB weld if it doesn't see too much stress. Might use a smaller screw to leave a bit more materiel.

Downhill with a tail wind and the engine turned off! Isn't that what you meant?

And yes U need a fuel filter.

Can you see a mark on the tube from the previous install? I put on a light coating of petroleum jelly to aid the install.

Sounds like you have the wrong part. If the correct part is unavailable look into a parts wanted post. Bet someone here has the right part for you. Mine was tough to install with the right part. Had to install a screw hose clamp to give me traction to push it in.

You have to go all the way around til it drops in the notches, can't tell from the photo. Good luck

BTW He's not just another dumbazz, you can take it to the bank.

Just finished installing my new sending unit so heres a few helpful tips. I measured the new unit retaining ring and the old one. The new one is 1.1 mm and the old one is 1.5mm, so I used the original thicker one. I didn't have a brass drift but I ground off the tip of an aluminum gutter...

BTW a lot of the new sending units have THINNER retaining rings. Guaranteed to leak so use the old ring with a new gasket.

My 69 has the painted one. I think the chrome is aftermarket.

How old is your coil?

Now that ya got a tube bender you can have some fun with snazzy looking rad overflow, pcv bends, power brake tube etc.

Kool, what kind of fans are they and do they all blow in the same direction or did you take the rotation of the earth into account and spin 2 the other way?

Rusty, as technical editor I feel its your responsibility to buy one for each style carb out there and run a before and after comparision with graphs and charts and a paragraph on the back of each one. Oh wait, that's what the seller is supposed to do. Why no numbers, just a hand held video...

Clears the choke and clears the hood even with an airgap. Linkage took a little work. Hope this helps.

BTW when I got my Demon carb they threw in a nice chrome aircleaner.

Wiped a lobe on the cam fuel pump once. It move the pump enough for the car to idle and run at low rpm but while I drove it the carb used more than the pump put out. Discovered it by pulling the pump and cranking the engine with a post in the hole and noting how little the post moved. Ended...

BTW gotta speed demon on my 400 dart and a street demon on my 360 cuda. Still trying to tune an off idle bog on both but that's my crappy tuning skills I'm sure. Any other rpm they both scream. Gives me something to work on. BTW Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!
