i have a holley 800 spreadbore that i have rebuilt and adjusted to work with my engine with zero problems with air fuel ratio of 13.3 equal on each side. i have never been able to run a quadrajet on my engine which i would perfer until now. i purchased your book and i have since, at least got my car to start and stay running after drilling idle bypass to 0.203 here is a list of everything else:
down channel: 0.0625
upper idle air: 0.787
lower idle air: 0.787
idle bypass: 0.203
idle mixture screws: 0.0197
butterflies: 0.0937
hanger F
secondary rods 0.0394 smaller and 0.0472 larger tubes
secondary spring tension 1/8 turn
i was unable to remove idle tubes to be able to drill them out as well i have removed primary rods and have no choke it will run with idle set at 1000 rpm (seems way to high) with nozzle drip if i lower the idle to 850 (where it is set on my holley with no problems) engine slowly drops to 500rpm and then will die after about 5 minutes. idle bypass was at 0.1875 and would not stay on unless pumping gas so i removed the primary rods and it stayed running but with idle set at 1000 rpm but with tons of nozzle drip and when i put it in gear it would die.
do you have any suggestions??
