Trying to remove the lean bog from my car I wanted to look at how the butterflies looked and were the T-slot was set. So I pulled the carb and noticed that I have an exceptional amount of T-slot showing. So I readjusted and put the carb back on. I started the car and it barely idled now and was...

Does anyone have a link to all the different thermoquad #'s and what they were on or fit?

I just saw this on Facebook, and had to go to their website and watch the video. Its a fairly long video, but I figured it would make a good discussion. A revolution in carburetor technology: increased carb performance

I've been playing around with an Edelbrock 1406 on my car. Im curious about the jets and rods sizing. I've been playing around with different combos for my car, just to try to understand how these work together. Which got me to thinking. Stock main jets are .098 and 75/47 Rods. Which is 23/51...

Im asking this because I ran into a new situation today with my car. Im using a Carter 6270 fuel pump, into the regulator, then the fuel filter and up to the carb. I started the car and had to adjust the regulator. I got it set at 7psi. I shut the car down to make some adjustments to some other...

I want to thank Roy (sgbarracuda) for his question regarding how a bypass regulator works after the carb and Rob (RRR) for the answer, it didnt make sense to me how it worked but it does now. With that being said. I'm gathering parts to plumb in my fuel system. I had a Holley Billet bypass...

Guys, I've been researching all week and I would like some help picking a fuel pump and fuel system that will work with my car. I had the engine at the dyno and they did a fuel pump test with my stock pump. It was not impressive and they suggested I upgrade to a better pump. Im currently...

I've been reading articles, I've got a wideband A/F gauge and been reading my plugs. Im stumped honestly as to which way to go with my carb at this point. Im trying to get maximum efficiency and everything I've been reading says I should be in the 14's idling and cruising, WOT I should be around...

I was finally able to get my car out and put some miles on it. Had about a 90 mile trip give or take. Been trying to dial in my carb and this was the first good test. I pulled my plugs and everyone of them look identical to this one. Porcelain is more white than tan. Hard to see that in the...

I've been dealing with carbon fouling plugs so I decided to finally install a Wideband in the car to see what is happening. Specs are as follows LA360, XE268H Cam, stock pistons, Magnum heads, air gap, tti's, qft slayer 750 carb. Timing is 20 initial and 35 total. I swapped the idle air bleeds...

Hi guys, picked up a Wideband A/F gauge and I need to weld in the bung. Trying to figure out the best place to do so. Im running TTI's so cutting into those is out. Right after the collector I have maybe 1.5" until my H pipe. After the H pipe it curves up towards the drive shaft then curves...

Hi guys, I need to pick your brains regarding my QFT Slayer 750 vacuum secondary carb. This is on my LA 360, stock pistons, with Magnum heads, XE268 cam, air gap. Static compression is around 9:1. Timing is 21* initial and 36 total. I got this carb brand new in about August of last year. The...

Looking to purchase a A/F gauge. I know nothing about them. I dont need anything high end, but want something decent. What are you guys using or recommend, also where you found the best deal.

When its cooler out, or just plain cold... The couple of times I've started my car, it does not like the cold weather. The choke is working fine, but I have to feather the throttle to keep it running. Im running a QFT 750 Carb on my 360 with a air gap and magnum heads. Where should I look or do...

I cant seem to find a source for a 14" round x 1" or 1.5" tall air filter. Does anyone have a source for this?

Hi fellas, Im about ready to pull my hair out. I've been struggling trying to figure out why I have a hesitation on my secondaries when I go WOT. Here is the set up LA360, Air Gap, Holley 670 street Avenger, stock jets, 6.5 power valve, 31 squirter, XE268 Cam, 3:73 gears, 2800 stall...

So I've been reading threads about mechanical and electric pumps. It seems to be about a 50/50 split between the two of them. However I plan on keeping my car carbed and dont really want to spend the extra cash on all the added parts needed to install a electric pump. Currently I run a carter...

Ive had vapor lock in the past using a performer intake and I cured it by installing a 1" carb spacer. Well out of habit I also installed a 1" spacer on my air gap. Those of you using air gaps do you have any issues with vapor lock and do you use a carb spacer?

Hi guys, Im having trouble finding a air cleaner that will fit under my hood. I have a 360 with airgap, 1" carb spacer and Holley 670. So far Im stuck with a tiny 9" cheap air cleaner on my car top of the carb. I decided to buy a 14" Edelbrock from Summit with a drop base to go on the car...

Like the title says. I have a hesitation before the Secondaries open up. I have a set of springs that came with the carb but not sure which one to install or if I should be doing something else.

Hello guys, I finally started my car up and being that I swapped in HEI I was a bit worried that I had something wired wrong. Well it fired right off. I cant believe how it just pops right off with it.. That is great. Although since I installed a new dizzy I need to readjust everything...

Ive searched and it seems to be a back and forth debate. Im researching parts that I will be needing for when I rewire my car. I've been debating about using the oil pressure switch or the inertia switch or both when I install a electric fuel pump. Does anyone have first hand knowledge with...

Ok, so once again Im trying to narrow down issues with my car. Pulled my plugs to look at them and they are white in color on the electrod. If Im right that means running lean. I have a LA 360 with magnum heads, xe268 cam, street avenger 670 carb stock jets. Im not sure if you need any...

Ok, found a very nice vacuum leak on my Eddy 600 carb. Im done with them and looking for something else, just not that brand carb. Let me know what you guys like to run. Im leaning towards the Holley style. Here are the specs on my engine. LA 360 HE268 cam 1.6 ratio rockers bored .030 over with...

Im wondering if there are parts available for this carb. The part on the top of this carb that has the broken piece. It has 3 screws that hold it in place. Im not exactly sure what this piece is but if anyone knows of a place to get it that would be great. Thanks

I have a Eddy 600 carb that came on a previous engine. I have no idea if it was tweaked already or not but the previous engine had some starting issues. I decided to run this carb on my new engine and the engine will not start unless you hold the Carb wide open. It will fire and run. As soon as...

I would like to run braided stainless line with AN fittings from my stock 360 fuel pump to the carb. Problem is I cant find a fitting for the 1/2-20 outlet of the fuel pump to change it to AN. Have any of you guys ever done this or converted to something else?

The other thread that about the 71 Demon vent line has me thinking. My car was also a CA emissions car and the same line was capped on my car. I installed a new fuel line and removed that vent line. Out of the tank there were also 4 other lines that went to that aluminum tube inside my trunk...

While my car is apart I have thought about replacing the fuel line. Also removing the vent or return line that is capped off. Not sure which one it is. Its on the passenger side inner fender. Anyways its not being used so its coming out. So Im only using the one fuel line. I have thought about...

Im trying to figure out whats wrong with my gas gauge. When I fill up it only goes up to 3/4 tank. It will not climb any higher than that. I have a dent in the bottom of my gas tank. Its a larger dent probably 8" across and is about 1 inch above one of the gas tank straps. Would that affect the...
