    12 volt constant Source

    I installed a ground and positive hub under the dash, as well as a ground hub next to the battery. No more running/splicing wires together, bad connections, multiple wires on the battery terminals, etc. Iirc, I ran both the ignition and start wires to the positive hub, I have an electronic...

    dual quad vs single quad

    Tunnel ram on a warmed over 383 with aluminium heads beats an 850 Holley on a Performer RPM intake. Ran this 383 with the single 850, tunnel ram with 390s, 600s, then efi. Tunnel ram with 600s on a stock rebuilt 383 hp engine, 850 a bit better. I wouldn't bother with a low and slow dual quad...

    Anyone using or heard of EFI six pack 440?

    I've had the FiTech dual quad for years, no complaints. No efi is a simple install, do your homework.

    dash electrical

    Do all those things, and twist the headlight switch back and forth a few hundred times, sometimes an old switch needs an internal "cleaning." On my a-body, the screws that hold the cluster to the dash are the ground, so I built a small cluster harness to ground everything to a stud where the...

    Holley Carb Spraying Fuel Externally ?

    Isn't the plug brass, and can that be soldered to zinc? Ordering a new bowl, probably get 2, once I get, just for the heck of it, I'll probably see if I can knock out the plug on the leaker and see if it can be tapped and plugged.

    Holley Carb Spraying Fuel Externally ?

    I read a review on Summit, and apparently this is called a welsh plug, and on the "new side hung 4160 carbs on the Holley website now show that they have abandoned the welsh plug and are now using screwed in plugs." This review was from 2 years ago. So I went to Holley's website and sure...

    Holley Carb Spraying Fuel Externally ?

    I take it there is no way to replace the o ring from the inside. Thanks Holley. Maybe I'll try a small hammer, then solder.

    Holley Carb Spraying Fuel Externally ?

    600 vaccum secondary is spraying fuel in a tiny solid stream, straight out, see the red arrow. I have never seen this before. I'll pull it apart tomorrow, but any insight is appreciated.

    Running pfte fuel lines

    I used the Wix 'corvette' filter/regulator. Mounted it on the inner frame rail near the tank, internal pump, short return line to tank, one line up to engine. Bought rubber lined hose retainers, self tappers. Used the existing fuel line hole in the torsion bar crossmember, put a length of hose...

    Carter WCFB Help

    I have 4 extra 2 barrel carbs, all Stromberg, all virtually identical (looking) to the BBD, except the idle screws. I have 1 BBD on my wagon, not taking parts off a running car. I'll be ordering those asap, thank you all!

    Carter WCFB Help

    It has the idle speed screw, difficult to get to with a screwdriver but easy with a small socket, as well as the fast idle adjusting screw. I adjusted both, but the only fuel it's getting is from the accelerator pump. The choke was stuck open when I first fired it, was sitting 32 years, and it...

    Carter WCFB Help

    Please do. Any pics would help. Maybe the original 2 barrel screws are the same?

    Carter WCFB Help

    Anyone have experience with a WCFB? Purchased a completely refurbished and rebuilt 4 barrel WCFB and intake, bolted it on, started up, does not idle. I adjusted everything, per a 57 Dodge manual, including floats, float drop, accelerator pump, etc. Also, adjusted the metering rods, although...

    FiTech FI but general fuel line question

    TanksInc tank, in tank pump, "Corvette" Wix fuel filter/regulator mounted near the tank (keeps 58 psi), PTFE braided lines with Fragola fittings (easiest fittings ever imo). One PTFE line up to engine, BMW regulator caps in throttle body. Make sure the short line within the tank is ethanol...

    fuel tank leaks at sending unit and pump

    Is that their in tank npt pump? Imo it's junk and leaks. I put their sending unit block off plate with their gasket, neoprene iirc, and bolts with their o-rings at THE BOTTOM of my wagon gas tank to cover a rusted section, small, cut it out, and it doesn't leak and hasn't for years. My point...

    What is all needed to convert to EFI?

    Ground and power hubs, redid wiring, Tanksinc, not their in tank pump, PTSE lines, iirc Fragola fittings easy, Denso alternator, made my own linkage for a few bucks, etc. And this filter/regulator next to the tank, no car length return, easy access to filter...

    67-ish Air Cleaner, what filter/drop base?

    Exactly what I want, drop base MRE28150, and filter MREP2863349. Thank you!

    67-ish Air Cleaner, what filter/drop base?

    I have an original 4 barrel air filter I'm putting on a 62 Dart with an Edelbrock and RPM intake. It hits the hood, I don't want an aftermarket chrome air cleaner, but I'm thinking a cheap one will get me the drop base and be smaller diameter, therefore open at the base since the top would be...

    EFI conversion fuel lines

    This is what I did, tanksinc and a Hyperfuel in tank pump with an fittings. Tank is well worth the $. No thank you on the tanksinc pump with npt fittings, all they offered at the time. I did this as well. The Hyperfuel pump has the option to use the internal regulator but I went with the Wix...
