I set my motor up and everything is running great, but I can feel a like it has a lil hesitation.Without throwing a light on it, I cant get rid of it. I know that the distributor is off, just enough to effect perfection.
How have the V8 guys set up there 914's so that they can time them with easy? Thanks, |

Thanks guys I will take a look at the fuel delivery. To give a little more info on the carb and motor it is a 650 dp mech sec over proformer RPM manifold, into a 88 350 with a 488 cam with MSD ignition and Dizzy, eventually on 100 shot of N2O. The carb is brand spanking new as well as the MSD set up. I really have only timed it by ear, so that's why I feel like the timing would fix the major issues. I want to get it timed so I can try the Nitrious out... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
I think I will try COMP4KIDS idea about the air/fuel gauge Might be good with the Nitrious anyways (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) ... and then try the vacuum timing procedure. Thanks again... |

Thanks again... if your gonna hit it with no2 you will need to pull timing out of it, or get a timing retard that is triggered when the no2 is on. do some research on it or you will frag the motor [not all at once but over time]. the dp is most likely going to give you fits on the street and a vac secondary would be tamer. and the cam is 488 lift? what is the .05 duration? you can play with the accelarator pump cam [the plastic thingy by the throttle linkage that pushed the pump arm] it will have a couple of screw holes for different settings. and does the carb have idle mixture screws on the secondary side? |
