I installed the above carb on my 69 GTO(AT). My car does not have a stock cam and the person I bought it off of had no idea what cam is in it. Right now I am getting about 10"hg of vacuum at idle and it idles poorly(surges). I believe the power piston spring is too stiff so I ordered an edelbrock spring kit to try a lighter spring. Right now the mixture screws don't appear to have any affect on idle. I was trying to adjust to get a little more vacuum to help out with my power brakes. I put this carb on to replace the old chevy truck Q-jet that was on it when I bought it. It was in need of a rebuild as the throttle shaft had quit a bit of play and I thought I had a vacuum leak. My questions are, what main rods and jets would you recommend. Right now the jets are 69 and the rods are unmarked (probably generic rods from a poor rebuild). Secondary rods are BE with an M hanger. I also seem to have a lack of ports on this carb. I have the full manifold port at the rear that I want for my power brake booster. I have two more on the front of the carb. One that is about midway up on the body(passenger side) that I suspect would be for EGR. I don't plan on using this one. The other one is on the carb base on the drivers side of the fuel inlet. Is this one ported or manifold vacuum? I need to hook up vacuum for my transmission modulator and my vaccum advance. Any ideas on where I can do this. Also, where is a good place to buy various vacuum fittings if I need one to go directly into one of the plugged ports on my intake manifold?
Cliff, if you read this, I live down the road from you in Delaware. and more than likly I will have you build this carb for my application (I know the idle circuit needs adjusted at minimum) in the future. But for now I want to have a little fun this summer in my new ride.
Thanks in advance everyone.
