is there a power roar like a tq with those carbs?

i have manual valve body so kickdown is of no concern,the 71 tq's have been redone by harms, as are the 72s

i thought the 71 was one year only type and the 72 was better, or so ive read

so would there be any issues running a 4spd TQ on auto car?, i have the options of a 71 auto trans TQ, or a 72 manual trans TQ, im leaning towards the 72

Yes it is

so the primaries are 70s, secondaries are 39s, should i open them up accordingly, or all 4 the same size?

ok, new to me, theres 4 over the primaries and 4 over the secondaries. would i just open up the 2 outermost ones over the primaries?

360, 302 heads, 267/268,214/220,480/489 bullet cam,108 c/l plus 4 degrees adv ground in, air gap, headers, 3000 stall, 355s, 20 initial, all in at 34 with fbo plate, 13 vac at idle, turn in mixture screws and it goes up to 15

electric choke, fully opens.pcv worked fine with the smaller holley i had on before. throttle cable works fine. ive used this carb off and on over the last 2 years, always something with it.soon to be wall art i think

floats are spot on, fuel pressure is 4.5 as suggested, t slots are also correct.just fiddled some more, when air/fuel screws are all the way in,gently, vacuum increases.initial timing is 20, all in by 34

carb is running super rich at idle, can turn air/fuel screws all the way in and vacuum does not change at all. carb is untouched out of the box, ive read others have had this problem but never got a solution from those brand x sites. car goes like a hot damn but plugs are fouling and getting...

probably not eh, was just wondering about the vac passageways in the carb base,the front(pcv) seems to meant for primaries whilst the brake booster at back is routed to secondaries.overthinking it im sure!

just making sure , holley says its for the brakes, non issue as i have manual brakes

just swapped 750 qf slayer for holley 750, according to instructions the qf rear port was pcv, the holley says rear vac port is for brake vac.would it be ok to run pcv off the rear brake vac port on the holley?, mostly for the ease of not rerouting everything

Well i put my finger under the end of throttle shaft and its wet.i can see the gap open and close on throttle blades when i move the throttle shaft side to side. On my 72 340 carb i can barely get any side to side movement6

Even so, i feel its a firetrap with the leaky primary throttle shaft and not impressed with choke not working.probably something simple there.not going to bother with it.expensive lesson but those are usually the best ones

750 quick fuel is back on with the holley strip dominator.happy demon, happy man!

Copper seal was mentioned by carb builder

Yes ive tried the fibre type and a more harder style one from a tomco rebuild kit

Ive tried a modified per DC ld340(now hooped) and a holley strip dominator.leaks all around base, ive tried 2 types of thick gaskets. Carb is leaking fuel from primary throttle shaft, you can visibly see and feel it slide back and forth sideways, backfiring out of carb this morning and electric...

how would i check for that, straightedge?

for some reason i cant get my rebuilt tq to seal to intake, ive tried it with and without copper seal. any tips or tricks would be appreciated

the speed tips dont come up large enough on laptop to read. no ken doesnt have a website, just do facebook search and pm him

This is what i received from ken, cant wait til the snows gone!

Yes the intake ports are larger the head ports.and im not yanking my heads to match them up.i guess i can use my ld340,or an adapter on the airgap

i did, at least the ones posted on summit and jegs. only reason im running this intake is i have a carter superquad being built for me, almost kicking my *** for selling my street dominator

that will work for now, will be digging into the blue seal part of gasket, biggest gasket port i could find is edelbrock at 2.3, not much bigger than the 2.27 felpro.not too impressed, oh well **** happens.maybe im overthinking it, just dont like the overlap top and bottom

just measured ports, 2.5 inches, felpro opening is 2.27 inches, time to search for a larger gasket

so i matched up my fel pro 1213s today to strip dominator i purchased this winter, prev owner really hogged out top part of intake port, my gasket is about 1/8th inch into port opening.is there another gasket that has a longer port window than the felpro,or is there an epoxy i could put in there...
