Will do, thanks!
I know this isn't as old as most of the hot rods, but the fact is that I can't seem to find message boards with the knowledge that many here have....
Bump for more info on the Edelbrock carb set up....
PERFECT TIMING!!!! Last Friday, I drove a round trip of about 300 miles to pick up an Edelbrock intake and riser for the 4bbl with 2 Flowmasters...
OK, so I've done the "timing by vacuum" thing and am pretty much back to where I began for all the trouble began. Initial timing is now at 14...
To interstatemaster: The 15" I mentioned was with the idle screws adjusted for max vacuum with the engine in Drive. In park at idle, it's...
It's a varajet 2se. I guess I am a little confused. Maybe what I mean is the off-idle mixture is rich? Based on the diagram of the 2se,...
I will first apologize if you are sitting there thinking...."oh no.....more???", but, I could use some help. I've reset the idle mixture screw...
O.K., so I've put the previous carb on that I had set up and had been running decently. This carb is not the original carb I pulled off the...
I have just sent off an email to a fellow that I hope knows the markings for the needles and jets for these Varajets. Also thinking more about...

well, after taking some diameter and length measurements, it does not look like i am going to effectively use the adjustable needle jets. the...
Unfortunately, I've not had much luck in finding much on tuning these 2se's. The stamped numbers on the jets seem to match the diameters, but the...
I truly appreciate the replies! I did forget to mention that the vehicle is in fact the last year model for the non-ecm. At the moment, I am...
Seems like there aren't many people anymore that know much about carburetors. I've become pretty proficient on my 2 barrel rochestor varajet II...
a friend of mine from tucson was out there with his rat rod along with his father in law.
Just a quick question about the Sun Performance analyzers. Those that have one with the scope that shows the primary/secondary ignition waveform:...
Hey, a fellow member recommended that I join. I don't have any hot rods, but just an '85 s15 that is all carburetor. The only computer in the...
