    Not getting WOT

    Thanks everyone for the input. I bought a new stud to mount the cable to the carb and moved it to a lower hole on the arm. Dunno if I'm getting 100% open throttle but it's close enough for me!

    Not getting WOT

    When I push the peddle to the floor the carb isn't fully opening. I have the stock cable and stock mounting bracket and a quickfuel carb. Is there any way to adjust the cable or is there a different way of mounting it to the carb itself?

    Help me with my windshield!

    Best Headers for Duster 340

    Stay away from flow tech headers or any other brand that use that design where the tie rod goes threw the header. That's what was on my car when I bought it and I haven't got around to swapping them out yet because you have to pull the motor. That design traps the starter and you have to get a...

    Sorry I don't know proper name for the "inner bumper" but when you remove the bumper there is a inner 1/4 thick steel frame BEHIND the chrome bumper. When you remove the bumper bolts the two halfs come apart.

    Not sure if it was mentioned before but you can shave a good 40-50 pounds by cutting steel out of the inner bumper. Did that on mine and the outside bumper still looks factory. You can go an extra step and get aluminum bumper brackets. Be another 30-40 pounds.

    Drag Racing is Dying

    My local track 1/8 mile track seems to be getting less popular. I love it down there. The stands are empty for the most part but the staging lanes are generally full during the program. They raised there prices on things and people quit going. There's also more foreign cars down there than what...
