sounds like crap in the seats, maybe even from manufacturing.... i have seen some real big pieces even , once a spiral chip from a drill bit. you never know...

sorry i have never used that bracket. on mine i used a mopar -holley adapter piece and lenghtened the stock bracket (4 Speed trans)

my last new holley came with 7.5 power valves, and were open at idle . it was so rich it would burn your eyes..... i put in 3.5 s and it runs much better....if they are open you should be able to tell just be the smell and the burn to your eyes......also make sure the secondarys are fully closed.

i would check out the float setting plugs ..make sure they are not striped.. ...same with the fuel inlets .... check the base plate for cracks...a new float bowl cost more that you are paying for the carb.........some times good deals dont end up so good...........so look it over good ,,,some...

hi red , I too have a bracket car , welded dist, it starts and stays at 36 degrees all the time , it starts becuase of cam overlap nothing else, and i am running 12.5 pistons , with a real world comp of about 11.75. converter is 4000 ..and hits at 4400....the only thing i did do was phase in...

maybe i am confused .... just trying to understand your point ....here is my take on it...a vacuum advance unit only advances at high vacuum.... so your car is in retarted mode when starting becuase of no vacuum ....the total we all agree on i think, it is the fifty something that i am in need...

make sure you have a good ground at the tank, run a jumper wire from the battery neg. to the sending unit base,,if it reads full then you have a bad ground , , providing the tank is full...

now you have me confused....are you saying that a distributor with a vacuum advance makes more horsepower than a locked out unit that is all in at idle and 35 total ? is this the ancient chinese secret ? if this is so nascar needs to know about it

same ol crap weather up here and taxes going up all the time...nothing new on the brighter side ...you need to get your timing set first , take a vacuum reading and go from there ...any manifold port will work ...carb port only if it is below the throttle plates. you want to measure the...

have you taken a vacumn reading and put in the app. power valve ?

now that you mention it.... i think thats why my 64 fury ended up with a mallory,,,i have never had much luck with accel parts....msd will be in the works for the dart, but for now the accel is working ok ...and there are plenty of other things the dart needs . I plan on driving this car for a...

yes the carb came with a 6.5 power valve, i had a 2.5 spare for the bracket car so i threw it in , next day i picked up a 3.5 and installed it. the 2.5 was just a little shy, the 3.5 is dead on... the dizzy is a very old accell duel point , along with the huge ugly accell coil, the coil is...

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...

thanks guys, its a 406 chevy, msd , cam is about 256 / 245 ? duration @.050 about 550 lift i really cant remember exactly, 12.5 pistons, actual comp is about 11.5... 4000 stall, victor jr. bracket racer only... i just didnt want to waste time looking for a problem that isnt there ....thanks...

trying to help out a neighbor kid, here s the problem ; just removed a set of hooker comps, 1 5/8 tube, put in hooker super comps, 1 3/4 tubes, ....now it is running rich, today i went through the primary side , new power valve, checked all the passages , and found nothing. it s runing a...

i have always used the alum. comes in coil lengths....it is easy to work with and not to much $$$. rubber hose is a no no....nhra & ihra only allow a small amount of rubber hose.... something like 10-12 inches total... check the rule book to be sure.... the A N fittings will cost more than the...

vaccumn sounds to low..... unless you have a monster cam, i would be looking into why..

i would pull the plugs and take a look at them , to rich could mean a power valve failure, any backfire through the carb can ruin a power valve , it only takes once, unless you have a newer holley with the power valve protection . is it possible that you got some of that 10 per cent ethanol...

a couple things to check, make sure the correct gasket is in the front meterig block, and while your there check the power valve, it sounds like its blown. the tip in response is controled by the power valve size. it should be 2- 3lbs less than manifold vaccum..

Bill, you didnt say where the leak is , is it over flowing into the carb or leaking out onto the manifold? also does this carb have a secondary metering block or the fixed plate?
