how to measure hanger ? And vacuum question...
Cliff Ruggles:
Our kits are application specific, with the highest quality gaskets in them. We will add our .015" thicker main body to airhorn gaskets per request at no additional charge.
We will also put our .230 thick open carb to intake gasket in any kit per request at no additional charge. This is usually required if the owner has installed an aftermarket or open plenum intake manifold to replace the stock one.
We include new springs and retainer with our accellerator pumps.
The accellerator pumps we use are the latest design, with a crimped on retainer to keep the shaft from pulling out of the body.
The seal is a much higher grade Viton part than the "soft" blue or black seals that come in over the counter kits. It uses a garter spring to keep it against the pump bore, for maximum efficiency.
We include the high flow .135" fuel inlet seat in our kits, with Viton tipped needle. We will substitute any size up to .149" at no additional charge.
We include a new plastic collar for the power piston in our kits. You will NOT find that part in any other kit.
We include a float in our kit, no over the counter kit that I know of comes with one.
We also put a new filter and spring in our kits, no over the counter kit that I know of does this either.
Our basic kits are $34.95. Add up the price of your cheap kit, float, filter/spring, and the fuel you used to go pick it up, and see if the "cheap" kit is really a bargain?
We also add tuning parts to our kits based on the application, and provide specific advice and technical assistance when needed.
Ask the purple haired kid with the bull-ring in his nose at OReilly's what jets and metering rods you need to use in your carburetor next time you buy some parts there. I doubt if you'll get a good answer, but I'll bet $50 he can sell you a nice "fart pipe" for your car!.......Cliff

no doubt, cliff. Thanks for your help. I did get an HP kit from you a couple of weeks ago.
