    kick-down sweetspot

    It's all stock 72 318 linkage except I added a taller mount for the throttle cable. I used a choke cable mount off an AFB that raised it up about 1 1/2" and extended the kickdown rod about 1/2" with a piece from the hardware store that is threaded all the way through so you have infinite...

    kick-down sweetspot

    I can't believe it after three years and 5 carbs I finally found the sweet spot. It stays in 1st up to 20-25 mph with minimal throttle and in 2nd up to 35-40, kicks down almost immediately, has full throttle, and shifts real firm. I'm using the intake and Q-Jet from the 86 360 I bought to...

    rebuild or not rebuild

    There are many rebuilding companies in the US, if they didn't work when rebuilt these guys wouldn't be in business. Get a good kit from Holley and some carb cleaner, and use an air compressor to blow out all the passages real good, not a real hard carb to rebuild. Bruce

    Holley spreadbore acc/pump question

    The list is 6210-3, the nozzle in front is different than the one in the rear. It has rectangular sides sticking out all the way down the side where the fuel squirts out, the rear is cylinder with small projections for the squirters, If the choke is partially closed it misses but don't want to...

    Holley spreadbore acc/pump question

    I have a spread bore double pumper on the 318 and it stumbles coming off idle, looking at the pump nozzle it squirts right onto the choke flap instead of down the bore. Does it maybe have the wrong nozzle on it? The nozzle is in the center pointing towards the front of the carb. Thanks and God...

    AFB carb kit

    Got mine at autozone, take the number off the front of he carb, down at the base. You need to soak the carb in cleaner, you will have to have another bigger container for the cleaner as the carb won't fit in the cleaner can,wash off with water then blow dry all passages with compressor. Take...

    Fuel Lines

    I think you can use the other line for a return but the supply line might be a little small for that engine, might want to upgrade to a 3/8 or 1/2 supply line.Bruce

    Carb draining?

    Thanks for the info, just looked back through the rebuild book and the later carbs (75 and later)didn't have a leak problem, as they used different plugs. Mine is off an 86, but I will still take it off and check it. The book says to drill and tap for plugs as epoxy will eventually come loose...
