hey all I read this months Mopar action and they had a tech piece in there about the correct return springs that are color coded for different set ups. My question is i’m Looking for the throttle return spring for a 69 318 two barrel carb plus the return spring for the automatic kick down...

Do the sending units work as good as the stock sending units as far as reading correctly with a stock gauge? Are you a dealer for tanks inc? The reason I ask is I'm on my second tank using my stock sending unit and fighting to get the ring to seal correctly on the tank. Looking at the FI tank I...

to give an update I went ahead and tried putting the OEM one back in but it wouldn't stay in the tabs on the tank it wanted to pop out of one of the tabs on the tank so, I bent the ears on the bigger ring just enough so it would lock into the tank. It seams to fit tight but haven't put gas in it...

what kind of a flat bar are you talking about it would have to be something that is pretty stout and not bend and squared off so it would bite into those ears. The ring that I have been using has stopped the leak because it is thicker than the stock one but, it is too thick to click into the...

I went ahead and did a search and found all kinds of information didn't realize that this was such an issue in the past I always used the stock retaining ring to make the seal but haven't tried the method bending the tabs in the help make a better seal. Thanks again

Have any of you had a problem with the new rings that come with the gas tanks and the rubber gasket? The problem I'm having is the older seal ring tabs are wore out and won't seal properly and was curious if any of you have tried to install a new repop ones that they sell the tabs are too...

AJ I have decided that you are correct with this being fuzzy logic I have looked into this further by pulling the filler tube out of the tank and decided that the tank needs to be dropped and drained because of flakes of stuff in the tank. which I'm sure is clogging up the sock inside the tank...

I have to put my two cents into this thread I did try a TBI system it works great as long as you use your car as a everyday driver because, the way it was set up was the more you drive the more the computer learns your motor. The other thing you need to consider is unless you understand computer...

Bump Anyone have any secrets on how to install there 3/8 fuel main without mangling the thing up? I'm sure one of the main thing is to get the car as far of the ground as you can if you don't have a lift so you have enough room to fish it through. Than remove the right rear tire for easier...

I hate to sound stupid but I did find out by mistake that it is a good idea before you make the connection from your fuel main is to make sure that gas is running out like a siphon so that you know all the air is out of the line. The mechanical pump works much better when the fuel line has all...

I forgot o mention I'm running a quick fuel 750SS mechanical secondary's and it is suppose to have 6.5 fuel pressure. I had the holley mechanical installed and took it on a road trip about 100 miles each way an d the temps on the way home where around upper 80's so the car at the time was...

it doesn't matter which RPM when it is cold and warming up it sits right at about 7 than as soon as it warms up it is running at 5 to 5-1/2 I would like to see it stay right at 6-1/2 but I have tried two different mechanical pumps and they both do the same thing. I have the original mechanical...

Hey all just wondered if it is normal for a carter mechanical fuel pump to drop down to 5-1/2 pounds pressure when it gets warm? When I first start the motor it runs at about 7 pounds and after it warms up it drops down to 5 to 5-1/2 to 6 it kind of bounces back and fourth around those pressures...

Gerald When I installed my 3/8 line from The Right Stuff the bends around the frame rail like you said needed some tweaking but the measurement from the frame rail to the spout of the sending unit was off about a 1/2" didn't notice it till I went to install the short piece of hose. I was afraid...

do you guys have any secrets on the best way to install the line without getting rough with it? This last one kinked at the bend that goes around one of the floor braces didn't notice it till I started putting on the clips to hold it to the car. So I need to get another line and I want to make...

Mark Which company did you use? Fine lines, The right stuff, or Inline? The one I installed was the right stuff and it wasn't even close all the bends were off! Pat

I have a question to throw out there for everyone's opinion I bought and installed a 3/8 fuel line from the" Right Stuff "it did not fit very well on a 67 Barracuda notchback. The bends where probably bent from the original measurements for a 5/16 line and they didn't take into consideration of...

Can anyone post a picture of where they welded the bung in there exhaust system with headers for a air fuel guage? Thanks In advance Pat Faley 67 Barracuda East Peoria IL

Bill have you used this system? if you have what do you think? I did email them and told them what size motor i have and asked if they could give me some suggestions as to what i would need to do this conversion. I'm basically tired of trying to tune my quick fuel carb ii has driven me nuts all...

No I mean the kind that you can buy from Summit or Jegs that you just buy the kit and all your injecters are in the carb and you have to install a inline pump and a sensor in the exhaust cost about 2,100.00 like i said pricey.

My question is has anyone installed the fuel injection carb systems in there cars? If so what are your thoughts on it? Do you like the results? I know these systems are pricey but was curious after installing them are the results worth it? LIke to here any comments anyone has on this subject...

sorry spelling should have read the post title before i hit the send button

Hey all I have a 408 stroker in my car and just installed a FAST air fuel ratio guage and have been working on jetting the carburetor and right now at idle I'm reading 14.6 and when I'm cruising down the highway it is reading about 13 to 13.6. Is this a good cruising ratio? I'm running a Quick...

I have the four corner idle set up with the quick fuel and i didn't know about any base setting of the front set at 1 turn out and the backs set at 1/4 turn out. I will give that a try. right now they are all set the same at 3/4 of a turn out and i did it with a vacuum gauge. I will try it that...

i think at idle more than at cruise

Yes it has four corner idle screws and they are all ajusted the same about 3/4 of a turn out.

yes they did while it was on the dino. I think the guy running the dino was satisfied with the numbers so thats the way we left it. I took it on a 1000 mile trip this summer and thats when I decided to check the spark plugs when I got back and sure enough they are still show being a little rich...

I was wondering what you guys know what the best jetting set up would be for a 408 stroker mild cam and edelbrock air gap manifold. Out of the box the quick fuel has 74 in the front and 80 in the back and the spark plugs ended up completely black. When on the dino we jetted it down to 70 in the...

I running at about 10 at idle with the vacuum gauge. I'm sure the power valve is probably a 6.5. Thats what it acts like but I sprayed e'ther around the intake manifold and didn't notice any changes, so I'm stumped.

My plan is for just cruising. Chenoweths did dyno the motor and it ended up putting out some big numbers but it has a hard time cruising at low steady speeds in fourth gear. it wants to chug down the road. It also has a hard time settling back down to an idle.
