I get the feeling you are not really reading everything, just skimming at best.

The said 451 still had booster drip @ .120 IBP, @ .125 it still spit fuel intermittently. @ .128 the booster drip was completely gone. At that point, in order to keep the Idle mixture screws 1 1/2 turns from bottom, the IFR’s had to be@ .052. I didn’t dream that size up. I listened to the engine...

I gotta add this, since we are here. In mild small blocks a lot of times you’ll notice that you idle mixture screws are 3 1/2 or more turns out. That is when I plug the idle bypass and do NOT redrill, or drastically reduce the size. This renders your idle mixture screws effective again.

No drilling the rear blades is not the best way, nor was the PCV port in the rear of the baseplate the best place. Your either placing raw air or in the case of the pcv raw oil vapors into the cylinders. Put it up front where it has a chance to mix with the fuel. And if you drill the blades too...

I suppose if you want to throw money away. 5 bucks gets you 4 Holley air bleeds or 100 brass set screws.

Definitely not a Holley jet. And the IFR jets are expensive and you don’t need the shoulder if you only tap deep enough to be flush.

This method is the same as the Holley guys drilling their throttle blades for bypass air. The double booster and smaller primary of the TQ and QJ will often be tricked into thinking it’s time to flow, if you drill the throttle blades.

Yes you redrill. The set screw just makes it tunable. If you go too big, just screw another blank in and start over. Sorry for the confusion, I think it but don’t type it.

This is the 72 340 AT 6139 baseplate. You can see it is configured completely different. No idle bypass holes. No holes in the air horn . The 9800 series Superquad uses Idle bypas in a completely different configuration than the 9103 style, that is the way we would alter this 6319 if we chose to.

Here is the factory idle bypass air entry. This is a 9103 carb. 1977 400 AT HP. Air then passes through the main body and out of 2 holes in the base plate. Here my .099 drill bit fits snug. On the top side I drill and tap for a 10/32 x 1/8 brass set screw. It’s a #21 drill.The factory.100 hole...

First let me say that you can add idle bypass air to an older style TQ, without much more effort. But we’re taking about carbs that carry $150 or more core charge. And once they are drilled and ground on there is no going back to original

Big cam, low compression lends itself to a spread bore, because airspeed will be your saving grace down low. If you go with a TQ a later one would be best. They have bypass air in the idle circuit, something that cams with more overlap need because the spread bores primary boosters are so...

Just did an AFB for a fella restoring an SC/Rambler

RIGID. McMaster-Carr is where I got all of mine. There is no slop in them.

Nope, but I like it when my house door squeaks, steps too!

Divers performance in Beloit, Minors performance in Lordstown, Tubs Automotive in Austintown. As mentioned above Micheal’s is a very good shop too.

You’ll have to learn the feel for it over time. Foot on the brake and hit the gas pedal half throttle, at this point the rear of the car will raise, when you feel all the cars weight shift to the front, that is the split second you have to smash the gas and let go of the brake. If you don’t have...

There is nothing wrong with epoxy on that plug. If you undo the crimp on the die cast to replace the o-ring on the aluminum plug, most likely there won’t be enough diecast left to recrimp. You can take out the N&S and clean up everything out real good and try it again. While there is almost no...

There is a fella named Gary Pavlovich, who seems to be taking those things rather seriously.

Sweet! 318?

Spoilers by Randy

They came in fairly clean already, the fella was just looking for a little different tune and a couple of the accelerator pump parts were wrong(new style). I just wanted to share because you just don’t see them.

Sorry not Mopar, but it might be a while before another set of these comes across the bench. 69 Camaro/ 302 cross ram

Public water quality is mandated public knowledge. The website that I seen had a list of chemicals and such, it listed the said zip codes levels and the FDA’s suggested limits. It was scary to me. I’ll take the well water. Thanks

Got this one.

Thanks pal. They get a good soak in my own concauction, then hot water soak and rinse, high pressure air to loosen and clean the internal passages. Then the restos get a two stage glassbead, with hot water rinse and high pressure air.
