Event Coverage What are YOU doing to get ready for the 2015 Meltdown Drags?

He doesn't know what he's missin' fellas!

Torn bowl gaskets in the pits,cracking vent tube bosses,what could possibly turn him off of these babies...? lol!

Seriously though,I love these Holleys.I seem to be able to get them to run pretty well with a minimal amount of screwing around,and they look all "Ricky Racer" as one of my Dad's buddies used to say....lol

Phil,
It looks like you've got some List # 4779 750 mechanical secondaries there.Man,that big angry motor of yours should like those babies!

Always makes me smile when I see down leg boosters.

 

The wire trick is the Grumps if I member right...

 

Tell me all you smile at here...

 

That won't be no problem once I uncap the exhaust that sum bitch roars louder than a lion and runs even better plus I'm sure I won't have any problem outrunning a certain black horse lol

 

We'll see about that.....What's your truck's best et to date...?

Ps: Did you not see the cam card I posted a few days ago?
This thing is gonna be an angry,screamin' monstrosity![emoji41]

 

I'm sure it will be but good ol Dave Crower took real good care of me when I ordered my big ol nasty roller cam

 

Is that truck gonna throw up all over itself and run over its own transmission again?Why don't you just wait til I bring that HydroStick for you,then your truck will stop eating trannys like its Jeffrey Dahmer or something... lol

 

Ha I wish I had that hydrostick already but then I would be one of "those guys" I'll take my chances rowing with the kool kids lol

 

Early melt Down Drags....

How about some Hurst Aid?

 

MUCH more goin on than jet extensions....

 

Send him one of each!

 

Air
Fuel
Botchery

 

I also see a vent whistle and maybe no power valve?

 

I was lookin right at that hole where a power valve goes,and couldn't see the forest for the trees.

The carb is epoxied and actually like 2- 2 barrels and is always jetted and squirted square.There are tubes bisecting the venturies so when the blades are wide open the air in the venturies gets "quartered" and induces atomization better,the powervalve is gutted and orfices opened up for more fuel and I do not know all that is done or understand how it works all I know is that it made my car "KILLER" consistant,idle clean, respond crisp and nonsensitive to humidity changes... in other words I have a set of jets and squirters for spring/fall air and jets and squirters for summer air. Also,I only run 69 jets (inna 11.5-1 383 chevy)with the screws only about 1/8 of a turn from seated.

 

And I thought your carb speed trick was some peanut butter dabbed way in there....

 

LOL

Looks like .093 holes in blades, (to supply more air at idle)
Are holes in rear blades also?

 

BUSTED!!!! Now you know ALLLL my speed secrets.....well....mebbe not all....

 

If they were wouldn't they be like the front ones and located next to the transfer slot? So I say no...but...I don't remember....I've had this carb 33 years and you would think I would remember but....I bump my head a lot....I will look next time and report back...

 

Redline it must be one bad ass carb you even have it chained down.

Just some FYI mine is coughing,sputtering and foaming at the mouth like a dog with raibies.

 

Been tuning this carb. on my 64 Chevelle driver the last two days, (for the 67 drag car.)
Already had the q.f. metering blocks & bowl extenders so ordered the q.f. 6-1050 center
and base plate. Ended up ordering new bowls (so I didnt have to part out the old 850)
The center came with jets so used them 1st try 86front with p.v. 96 rear no p.v. (blocked)
I have a stumble but its to lean for race mode yet, this gage reads green at 14.7 mix
This pic. is a idle, But whats interesting is its green (all ways) even @ W.O.T.

Just put in next drag race tune 96 square no p.v. , my goal is to have the same green at idle
and the top two red rich bars on at W.O.T. = about 12.5. mix.

Then it will be ready for
1/4 m.p.h. tune on Tickety Boo

 

For a 600hp motor it sounds kinda tame...I guess you could call it square since it made 598 tq....ha ha ha
