Got the Hughes converter today .... work will commence shortly ... way better than worrying about the old one. |
My current 65 Lemans was a 326 2 bbl 2 speed automatic single exhaust, previous owner had put dual ex and 4 bbl. 2.93:1 axle, extremely gutless. Could not figure out why, tried everything tuneup wise and compression averaged close to 140 psi.
Bought some RA ex manifolds and Pypes pipes. Turns out the heat crossover butterfly was frozen SHUT. All the exhaust from the L bank was going through the intake heat crossover and all going out the R pipe.
