That's what I am working on now, the wiring is in, and I was going to replace plugs before I started it and the wires look fine, is the stuff mentioned in the last thread, but that was supposed to be a carb question that turned into a everything thread. This is more of a overall performance thread.
I just have the stock ignition system.
Gotcha. So I assume by "adding performance", you actually mean getting it to run great as she sits.... It will only run/perform as good as the carb sitting on top of it to begin with....
Correct. I want to get her running/ drivable and to have a healthy engine. The previous owner rigged a lot is a big reason she's not running now. Needed to order a lot of smalls which have finally arrived.
I think I am getting pretty close, all the engine bay wiring is pretty much done, just need to do two things, and the dash wiring is ready to go in, so I'm really hoping to have it running asap. Didn't you recommend a holley 750 double pumper carb? If so I may post in the wanted section that I am looking for one.wish you were closer, sounds like fun getting it going
Straight line X exhaust.
Yes, I recommended a 750 dp for your particular set up. We don't know anything about the TQ. Could have been laying around for years and they threw it on to sell it. You have to start with a good carb (not saying the TQ isn't) before you can sort through any of the issues of how it runs.
Alright I think pypes has something like that pretty cheap I'll look into it, thanks.
