thanks thats what i needed . i need to slow mine down . i had it wound tight about 5500 last week and thats a little fast for my old car .mine does not run out of gas it pulls all the way.its setup almost the same as yours. i don't like 75 or76 carbs.i only like 77 0r newer . the 75or6 had the apt in the left front corner standing in front.yes you can plug it but to me its not worth messing with.fwiw
spluhar:
what do you have?
429bbf:
i have a 17058212 and a 17059212 one on myltd 429 set up like yours and one on a 1979 ford f250 460 the ltd has the edelbrock intake i believe its the 7166 the pickup has the old cast iron manifold with a spacer . i will get rid of the spacer when i change intakes . i will not plug the exhaust crossover next time its causes me problem when its real cold and you let it sit for 15 minutes or so it cools off to fast. fwiw.
spluhar:
What type of fuel pump do you have?
429bbf:
it will take me a day or so to answer you. its below zero and covered in snow and i don't feel like digging it out . ha getting lazy in my older years. i think its an ac. i just went to napa and told them to give me a pump . nothing special just over the counter.ill try get back to you monday sometime.
