Power mods

(1/1)

ShadowElky:
I've got a E4ME Qjet on a 305 in an El Camino. I have removed the choke plate and linkage, modified the secondary air valves to open completely, modified the secondary throttle plates to open completely, and removed the secondary choke pull-off linkage. It runs alot better thsan it used to, but as I am always looking for ways to get more power I am wondering if there is a way to gain power by changing the secondary metering rods. I am not opposed to any suggestions.

Shark Racer:
If the rods you have are excessively lean or rich, you can definitely gain power by adjusting them.

ShadowElky:
The current rods are DD rods, which upon receiving My Qjet book I have found are the leanest available. I also had a T hanger. So I ordered a set of DR rods and a B hanger to start.
