Dual quads versus big hammer!!!...
FINALLY A BREAKTHROUGH!!...
Watching very closely for what 360duster was talking about.. I took my first drive and just warmed the car up. Taking close observations of the AF gauge and paying attention to how it was performing.
And then went from the Orange Springs to the Green Springs that comes stock in the carburetors. I didn't observe anything different at idle but it seemed more sluggish and definitely did not have any positive effect on the hesitation...
Third try was a charm today... I put the Orange Springs back in and took out all of the 62-54 metering rods... I put the factory 60-52 metering rods in the rear carburetor and the set of 58-44 metering rods I received in the mail yesterday. The idle seemed almost a hair smoother and definitely I can tell there was some better throttle response.. then of course the big test was at Cruise and giving it a rather hard acceleration.. A VAST IMPROVEMENT!!... Now I'm not saying totally gone but 2/3 to 3/4 gone...
Tuesday I should be seeing those 58-50 metering rods I'd like to try in the back..
Right now I have the Holley 35 tube squirters.. I could possibly go to the 42's or the 47 I have as well... But I'd like to see what those metering rods do first...
Also I got these today so I might do a little drillin...
