So for clearance, the hot ticket was the Hayden 2765 Jag standard duty. This had the shortest mounting ability, but some found that it wasn't cooling effectively. So the update to the 2765, is the Hayden 2947 heavy duty fan clutch. From my reading, it is a scosche longer, but being HD, it moves...

Plugs look pretty normal. If my memory serves me correct, an old school trick was to run a plug a point or two hotter on the outer holes. Back when I was playing with the 1bbls on the slant, the early 1920 Holley carb worked really well.

Depends if you are a Holley or Edelbrock guy. Holley guy ? Holley 390 Edelbrock guy ? Edelbrock 500 On another note: Talking about funds and doing stuff cheaper. I would steer you in the direction of a Clifford or Ofenhauser intake, and Clifford headers. This will be less expensive, and give...

You are spinning your wheels messing with an old carb off a 383, for a slant. Way over carbed. Let me recommend a Holley 390 or Ede 500. Buy used, and save a ton of money. Good luck !

On schedule, there's the diarrhea !!!!!! :thumbsup:

Ah Yes, the old monthly trash Clifford thread. Never had an issue getting any parts from them. All came boxed nicely, and on time. Imagine that. Unleash the diarrhea !!!!!!

Right on. Little far from me. Otherwise I would have that thing running like a top. :) Ps: When you are ready to sell it, look me up 1st. :-)

Welcome to the site. What part of LA are you in ?

Bowl Vent post #24 :lol:

The answer is right in front of you grasshopper. You just didn't want to accept it. I wish you luck.

Its called process of elimination. Look it up. I looked up your posts, turns out you are a pain in the ***. Hook it up to your power brakes.

Someone educated ? WTF ? I just told you what it was. Its to vent the fumes from the carb. Early emissions bs. Yours is just hooked up somewhere else. Why even try, if you are going to insult us ?

The bigger hose on the carb is known as the " bowl vent ". It usually goes to a charcoal canister, but in your case vents to the block some how. I would take it out of the equation if possible. If you can't scrounge a charcoal canister from a junked car, you can leave the bowl vent at the carb...

You must have some other vacuum lines going on, possibly with the clean air package. Without pics, you got me stumped.

PVC hose ? Post a Pic.

Does the hose go to the distributor ?

Everything in question.

Does it go to the distributor ? Vacuum Advance ? Pictures would speak a thousand words.

Very Nice !!!

With the price of parts, (If they are even available)and the price for labor, you might be better off buying a rebuilt long/short block. I bought a /6 from ATK years ago, and it still runs well.

Nice, I have a 650 AVS2 sitting in a box ready to go into my 360 car. :-)

Finally had a chance this weekend to play with the cars. I've had this Ede 500 AVS2 for awhile, so I popped it on. It replaced a regular Ede 500. After starting it I'm like holy s*** what the hell is wrong with this thing. It idled rough and sounded like crap, so I turned it off. After further...

The Cure

Playing with springs in the distributor does not adjust the amount of mechanical advance. It adjusts the rate the timming comes in. Usually you would install 1 lighter spring into the distributor to get the timming or advance to come in quicker. Limiting the amount of advance requires welding or...

My experience with the slant, is they don't like the same amount of timing as small blocks (12/34) If you are experiencing pinging, I believe you are using to much timming. Lowering the expectations of the thing will produce a better running motor.

Consistent 70-80 ? Going to have to get a Hyper Pak. :steering: Which actually ...hold it...Isn't a bad idea. But is it economical ? There's the question.

70-80 considently ? Stock lower end. Super Six Free Flowing Exhaust Electronic Ign 2.76

Ask me how I know. :eek: Never again. Small Blocks for me.

I guess I'm not sure what you mean by economical ? Are you talking economical as in money or fuel economy ? I was thinking economical as in money. Building one of these engines for power adds up real quick.

From what I got, you want to build an economical slant that is reliable, and can be driven everyday. The slant in "stock form" is already just that. Shaving the head/block, building a cylinder head, fancy stall converter, gears, etc etc would not be economical. Sounds like you've been on .org ...
