    Intake and carb choice

    I just read the wire trick last night. I already sold my carbs. Wish I had read that before. Because at idle was my problem it was very rich. Thoughts on side hung vs in line carbs? They were in line but I've liked the looks of side hung

    I decided to stay with tunnel ram. But drop to a smaller carb. I'm at a toss up between 2 390 holleys or 2 450 holleys suggestions?

    Intake and carb choice

    I believe it's rich on idle because when in the garage with door open the fumes will run you out. I was also dealing with a back fire through the exhaust when I'd get on it and let off. I noticed jetting down it got softer but has never fully went away. I didn't really have any knowledge of...

    Rob you could be right. And I'm not so sure that's not part of the issue the cam that is. I can try lower floats

    Intake and carb choice

    I'm throwing in the towel on the tunnel ram. More then I can chew. I'm looking into single intakes. I'd like single-plane as I like the look. Motor is 440 .030 over about 9.5 to 1 compression. Mild port iron heads. 4.10 gearing 3500 stall. Mostly street driven. I'd also like to stay with holley...

    back fire

    I've done some tuning changes and feel really close. When driving I get a low middle backfire out exhaust. I'm down 2 60 for jets in both carbs. The loud backfire is gone. I'm at 20initial and 36total. Only,does it when I let off throttle and only while,driving not,in park

    tuning baseline

    Rpm drop seems fixed. I bumped each mixture screw up about 1/4 to 1/2 tturn after that I experienced maybe a 100rpm drop going into gear. Still had several back fires through,the exhaust. Timing still set I'm unsure where to make my changes.

    You know I believe it does that now! As in after hot it kinda slowly,rolls over like,the battery is dead. Thinking that's what your talking about.
