Bottom of oil caps , even on newer cars
Was always under the impression , condensation mixed with the type of oil that sits stagnant for along time ???
Tan Brown Gray In Color
Yes , in the secondary circuit
After verifying fuel pressure like mentioned , fuel flow to the carb , throttle linkage , throttle plates fully opening
Verifying the .104 secondary jets , going to .107 with no change
Removed the secondary jets again , tried carb clean thru the passages with...
Anyone ever flow test one , with these huge annular boosters hanging up front
Dyno test numbers say on a 500-600 HP Stroker Big Block with this 800 AVS2 compared to say a Thunder AVS 800 or a comparable Holley
Just curious if anyone has actually tuned one and what they learned versus...
Been running 3:91 Gears in my 383 BEE for over 30 years now - Auto Trans
28” 275 60 15” Tires help a little
Fun yes - Really helped the torque curve of the stock 383 down low - Different camshaft , intake blah blah
Now that I am running a 383/432 Stroker Kit as of five years ago -...

"but i have little to no throttle response at low speeds and then it occasionally stalls out. I cant even power brake the car without it stalling."

Probably high gears
Single Plane Intake Manifold
Honestly
GET RID OF THAT INTAKE MANIFOLD for your application
A nice dual plane will change everything in regards to LOW THROTTLE RESPONSE
Then we can start talking carburetors

A. So. Car ran fine before I started all of this and *all* I did was swap to a new distributor cap.
B. I just remembered I swapped out to a different coil. I thought I researched to make sure it was the same ohm rating, but maybe not.
Thanx , appreciate that
But what I am trying to find out first is
He mentioned factory wiring and distributor - You have to have an ignition module or box from the factory correct - He mentions none
That cap will not fit a factory distributor
That is a distributor cap for a Mallory HEI or...
One more thing to add
Something caused that cap to melt
No ignition box ? Not even a Factory Mopar ECU
So looking at that distributor cap , could this be an all in one distributor ? That would still make it a CDI Ignition system type distributor
We need more information on that...
The old cap was part of the problem - Center rotor button contact on cap is melted that contacts your rotor
The new cap is correct
What does your rotor look like - Is it melted also
Can’t see the model number of that ignition coil
What are your running for an ignition box or module
If your positive those are nuts in there , we can’t see that with your pictures , anyways I would bee grinding the OUTSIDE diameter of any or all cheap sockets that would bee close to 9/16" inside diameter
If that doesnt work , onto plan BEE
God Bless your wife - Hope everything went well

So every car that gets put away six months out of the year , we where supposed to bee pre-oiling the engine before spring start up
I learned something new after 35 years
Last week from Classic Ind. - My first order with them
I supposedly got the last two Orange 383 Magnum they had in stock , that was last week when I talked with them thru email after this subject came up again and again and again and
I know Mega Parts didn’t have any for a few years now when...
Technically the Mopar Performance pies are re-pops also , selling on eBay for millions
In reality how would you even know a factory original/dealer from a re-pop ?
Unless your car is unrestored
Anyways
