Thanks everyone for the advise. I think you have pointed me in a good direction. Budnicks- I am trying to stay with a set up that will keep with my linkages so I don't have to mess with kickdown and accelerator distances. its set right and i dont want to mess with it. I have never been a fan of...

I have a 440 .030 over with a 484/284 cam and 2800 stall converter, 3:23 rear. I currently run an Edelbrock performer 750 electric choke. I have had this carb for many year and have gone thru it at least twice to keep it running with todays gas. I am looking into getting an Edelbrock AVS 2. I...

Just need a general opinion of the best brand for a master cylinder. Part number would be for a 1970 charger with front disc brakes, 1-1/8" bore driver side line connection. I have seen prices from 65-160 bucks. manfacturers vary, from DYNAMIC FRICTION, CONCENTRIC, ETC What is the best trouble...

RPM has been checked with the tach and a timing light digital tach. both are in sync. I can hold the brakes and bring up the RPM with the accelerator. I can keep the car running by holding the brake and gas to keep the RPM up and drive away just fine. if i come to a stop and let it stay in gear...

I performed a test on the car last night. got the car on jack stands and let it warm up. Idle in park was 1100 rpm (as it has always been) dropped it in gear with the brakes on an the idle dropped to 350. Released the brakes and as the wheels began to move the RPM went up to 900 (which is what...

cam looked good when the intake was removed to replace the valley pan last week. no visible burn marks or wear, lifters and rods were tight, rebuilt the eddy 750, I went thru everything that may cause a drop in RPM wile under load in gear. timing is steady like it has been for 20 years set at 12...

69 charger, 440 .303 over, 425hp 727 auto, 3:23 gears, I was thinking Huges. On their site the nearest thy have to what I was running is a 2500 stall. I have tried one in the past that was 3000-3200 stall and the car absolutely hated it. Since october my car drops from a normal 900 rpm in gear...

I am installing a new valley pan on a 440 after discovering a vacuum leak below the intake manifold. My pan came with 4 paper gaskets, I am not planning on using them since I did not have the before. I have stock heads with an aluminum M1 intake. I plan to use permatex black rtv on the end...

My plans right now is to put my Firecore Distributor back in, it was set and built to my timing and specification and has been working great for two years now. with 24 degrees advance in to so my base is set to 12 for 36 all in, I can bump up to 14 with 38 all in but I need to get it to run...

I can not read the articles they get blury when printed or blown up to see

Metering rods move as they should, I have had the same timing for over 15 years never had an issue, so I am really not willing to change that since this problem happened out of the blue and the timing was checked and remained the same.

Put the original coil and new ECU in but the problem still remains.

I am working on getting another carb to try from a friend. I have tried most of the suggestions and nothing has solved the problem. Its extremely frustrating and my car budget is non existant right now.
