everything is good and well with my car, just one thing
whenever i'm in the powerband in my engine (2500-5500) and i proceed to engage full throttle action, i get this wierd racheting sound coming from the engine bay.... my first worry was that the timing was way off....I adjusted it and the dwell and nothing has changed.... |

Are these cars carburated or FI? My webers went off song at certain rpms- too much slop in the (old) linkage made the left & right sides sorta fight each other- but it was more apparent for me at lower RPMs- but that was by carefully balencing at about 3200 so it moved the out-a-synch zone down lower. I replaced the linkage and had stunnning improvement. Anyway- for me it was not only a loss of power, but sounded like a UPs truck. Now if'n y'all got that fool injecting stuff- I kain't hep ya none.
