It does seem to be that they are out of round, yes.
I don't know how old the tires are but I assume several years old at least. Could be the balance.
Hello, Gents. I purchased a car that was tubbed and features 375/60/15 Pro-Trac bias-ply tires. I've tried different air pressures. At around...
I know, he's amazing.
Wow! Thanks man.
The carb numbers = 1850-2
Hello. I have recently purchased a car with a 406 (supposedly), Edelbrock heads, a tunnel ram with two 600 CFM Holleys and full tube headers. The...
I do have the other transmission. The seller claimed the internals were all hardened and that he was planning to "swap the guts" into another housing.
Would a 700R4 require a different driveshaft because of any size difference compared to the TH350?
Well the former owner abused both transmissions and the car. The vehicle had brand new 375 tires on the rear $500 a piece) and he peeled out in it...
Hello guys. I bought a Studebaker with a 406/TH350 setup. The seller had already ripped up the last TH350. Now, in the car, is a standard TH350...
Ok I'll take some pics
So what do you think my symptoms mean?

I found oil by one of the intake manifold bolts which was loose.
Y Maybe the intake manifold.
Thanks. I changed the carb because the one on the engine was a 600 CFM and the 454 V8 came with a 750 CFM.
I don't know what the timing is yet. Just got a timing light. Haven't ever used on before.
I haven't touched the carb yet. It was brand new when I bought it. I bolted it on and it fired right up.

I replaced the plugs, wires, cap and carb. The BBC runs smooth all but when idling. It sounds like it's missing. I held my hand over carb when the...
36?
Alright. What should total timing be?
Do you think that the carb is simply too large? I know it's theoretically only using the amount of CFM the engine demands, but I always wonder....
Yes floats were new
I thought it was 6-7
What should the psi be for gas for the QJet?
Right. I have a mechanical fuel pump. And I have a fuel pump regulator set to 6 pds. You know, when the carb had the fuel filter in it, after WOT...
And, BTW, the QJet was a solid base for rebuild. Very clean carb.
Ok. Well, a man who worked on QJets for 25 years in California rebuilt the carb. Soon as I got it, I installed it. Fired right up and ran pretty...
