Going to take apart what I just bought

<< < (2/4) > >>

Thanks Omaha, This car is pretty original and many things don't work so the advance could be rusted up and frozen. I set the timing at 8 degrees. I need to know what the total timing should be. I don't know if there are many different units that make the total timing more for race. I'm just a stock 400 Pontiac.

That airhorn can be made to work with that center section, it only requires one pair off upper idle airbleeds.  The main airbleeds wouldn't be the right size either, but all of those items are easily changed......Cliff

AZracer:
Thanks Cliff,

 I'll read your book some more about the upper idle bleeds and main air bleed size. I'm guessing I should use recipe #1 to size them.

and I think it is idling richer than before.

AZracer:
OK I took it around the block and I had no hesitation at all. I even laid rubber when it hit second gear!!! So things are better but I want to make perfect. So I'll need to go through it and hit all the fine points.

Cliff so are you saying I have two upper idle airbleeds now and I need to disable one pair?

Thanks Pat
