    this is a need to know

    i would go more in depth but you need to list all your engine parts (heads, cam, rockers, lifters, block milled?). we cant just give you a number out of the blue.:shrug:

    Crate Engine Builder wants me to go F.A.S.T. EFI over Mass-Flo . . .

    the FAST system is very tuneable and you can do whatever you want with it. perhaps your combo is so radical a mass-flow kit may not work as well as a completely setup speed-density system

    holley tuning issue at cruise

    holley tuning issue at cruise

    brian, since that photo I reset the primaries to be square. thanks for the link. I don't know the exact size of the IFR because the orifice starts out big and necks down. I don't have a small enough drill bit to get in where it necks down, but checking with wire says it may be in the .030 range.

    holley tuning issue at cruise

    ANYWAY: put the .023 wire in the IFR, way too much wire in it. Had the idle screws backed out 4 turns and it would only idle on the pump shot lol. Cruise was a lean-out. Time to try a smaller wire but at least I know where too much is. PS couldn't drive it to the hot rod power tour stop in...

    holley tuning issue at cruise

    added a .010 wire to each idle feed restrictor (at .052") and put the carb back on. The idle mixture screws needed to be backed out a little and then it ran, but I couldn't tell ya if it made any difference! AFR was still 13:1 at cruise, which is what it was before. I will try a heavier wire...

    new with custom suspension

    need some raw data first. like many other aftermarket companies, it may look nice but not work as well. What is the benefit of this kit over others, except that you can build it yourself? The above mentioned items, camber curve, caster, ackerman, roll center, bumpsteer (also mention your...

    holley tuning issue at cruise

    carb is pulled apart and waiting on some attention tomorrow. I read a little bit and also because I don't want to drill out anything just yet, I'm taking the metering block out and adding a little wire to the idle feed restrictors. I think I can back out the idle mixture screws and still have a...

    holley tuning issue at cruise

    would I need to drill the LSABs, or is there anoter adjustment I can make without doing that kind of modifying? what about the idle feed restrictors? And thanks guys so much for helping me get this damn car running right again!

    holley tuning issue at cruise

    update: So I played around a bit, messing with the idle mixture and total timing, and the springs in the distributor. My vacuum advance was adding 22 degrees at cruise! I read most SBF like about 10 degrees vac advance, so it needs adjustment. I am now running 35 total with the vac adv...
