First pass was a 8.75. Lets say I wasnt happy. lol I need a carb in a bad way. I do know this. It felt like I had something in the way of the footpedal. Lol I had the bracket that the idle screw hits on backwards and wasnt getting full throttle. I got it switch around and it went 8.166 then backed it with a 8.159.
I am happy with the first outing. I just stuck a coan 20505 shelf converter in and it felt tight. I figured it would be to loose. I shifted @6700 and my rpms was dropping backto 48 49 hundred.I have the playback tach but dont know how to work it.
I am going to put a auto camshaft in and test it. This was a stickshift camshaft this week.

Back to the carb I got the q jet to danny ashley who is the man on the rochester??

What about torque converters? Any used stuff out there that could help me save a buck??

Thanx class racer friends
