long story about the down time on my car....
something along the lines of "smaller venturi's and raby jetting suggestion" to optimize performance.... blah blah blah... remove cold start stuff like a few guru's said... "why is it dumping 8 gallons of fuel down each throat" blah blah blah.... call brad... put cold start pistons back in... and finish the carb rebuild.... anyway. so last weekend had the car close.... but my lame dial fuel regulator croaked... and was spitting fuel out the accedl jets at "3" PSI... but falling on its face at 2.5.... Problem solved. KaptKaos sold/traded me a CB rotary internal regulated pump... car idles great. starts up first crank. roll onto throttle, idle circuits werkin bitchin, and i was getting a little hesitation onto main tranisiton but would do OK at WOT..... up the main jet to a 135 from a 130 and it is BADASS.... totally smooth thru the powerband, no smoke, no hiccups, backfires or coughing..... runs AWESOME. i am soooo stoked. car flies. lit up the 8" fuchs wrapped in yokohamas like butta LOL..... i have a slight crack in a header weld and need to fix it.... gotta throw in the short geared tranny... and go fight some electrical gremlins, and i am good to go... my dad liked the second gear chirp LOL AA |
