Rod difference between automatic and manual transmissions.
Mudsport96:
My guess would be the way a manual " locked solid" Power transfer vs automatic (fluid coupled) minutely varying power transfer slightly higher rpms at the same speed for same gearing because of converter slip.

That would be my best guess as well. I don't think it has as much to do with the engine as it does with the transmission. I don't know why Rochester configured it that way, but they did.

Also, keep in mind, the calibration settings on the M/T Qjet will have different size restrictors, air bleeds, etc., than the A/T Qjet. I should have said it is a calibration setting difference, not a jetting difference. Sorry for the confusion. I know someone who may have the answer to your question above or I can ask him for you. He usually doesn't like to be bothered by e-mail. I am an exception, LOL. :P
EDIT: I just asked him the question. Let see if he knows the answer.

I will have too get all the info I can off my 7028210, restrictor sizes and down tube size and so on. Unless that is all correct for my eng/trans combo I'll never get it all dialed in exactly right.
Ok thx again for your time.
Ill be back!

You're welcome, bud. Let us know what you find out, settings wise. I am not the person to talk to, to dial in your carburetor. Cliff, Frank, Carman, etc. are your best bet for that. I will let you know what, John, says whenever I here from him. Take care! Ethan
