I purchased a car a long time ago and finally after chasing problems after some test runs, I have realized after tearing the engine down I got a bad deal. I'm now building a 498 stroker bought from mancini.
Here's my problem, have 1964 max wedge intake with 3705 carbs, took the carbs apart and found this.
Drivers side jets are 120/171 all around with 16-6 metering rods.
Passenger side main jets 120/171
Secondary jets left, 120/389, right 176
16-76 rods.
Obviously passenger side off a different car.
QUESTION: DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT JETS AND RODS WERE IN A 1964 3705 CARTER FROM THE FACTORY? And a suggestion how much richer to go from a 440 max wedge with stage 3 heads to a 498 max wedge, 13 to 1, stage three heads.
Help is really needed.
