dart gets a new holley

today ups brought my summit order, i spent all afternoon playing in the shop...i took off the carter that i rebuilt two weeks ago ... (it still sucked.)... put on the new 3310 vac carb and added the rear metering block , fired up nicly, but rich as all get out at idle,, vaccum test showed 5 -5.5 so i had a 2.5 power valve for the bracket car, in it went ....nice idle now ... took her down the street ,,,what a differance!!!! it is starting to act like a 340 mopar finially......lots more to do yet but it is nice to see it going in the right direction..... this weekend i hope to do the final jetting and air fuel ratio ......got to go over the dist first, i think the prev.owner was in there also......sooner or later i will have repaired all of his " fixings " but the good news is the car runs so well now that I am going to leave the 340 victor manifold on ... holleys are a good carb when you take the time to dial them in..... ( even when it is to big )
Today was a good day for pullin gears !!!!
