Cool, thanks for the help. Would the
BBK-1607 do me just fine in a 255?
Grady, I've been searching up old threads. I saw the one on idle surging, which seems to be what I'm experiencing. Right now the car will idle on its own, but every few seconds, it will bump up an extra couple RPMs. It's kind of hard to describe. On another note, when my friend pulled it out of the shop yesterday, he had to keep on the gas a couple of times to keep it from dying and work the clutch a little bit. Looks like I will go through that idle surging check list and see if I can pinpoint the problem.
Yes ... the old h/c/i surge gremlin has reared its ugly head
I've also read that my combo is mild enough to the point where it should drive, and that I should fix the problems before going in for a full on tune. Will get back to you all. Thanks!
Well ... You have gotten some wise info here from a mix of ..........
Wise Guys
Here is a copy & paste from your original post
I've dropped a 306 into my 94. HCI is all edelbrock performer stuff
I don't know how aggressive that cam is
but
I got a sneaking suspicion that h/c/i kit is not as mild as you think
never the less ... Yes ... You are correct in making sure ALL issues from
the recent upgrade are dealt with.
I just can't stress ENOUGH how many times over the years
I've seen peeps chasing their tail like a little dog around and around
Trying to adjust this & that
Buying tuning equipment
Paying a Pro to burn chips
etc etc etc
Only to find
vacuum leaks
improper valve adjustment
and
other simple little things
Causing most of their grief, frustration, and heart ache
Hey ... With motor mods ... Stuff has gotta be like Stuff needs to be :Word:
and
I guess I'll never understand
Why some peeps don't consider a thought similar to this
Hummm ... My car didn't
Make that sucking sound
Leak that fluid
Make that tapping noise
etc etc etc
before I did all this recent work
Good Luck and let us know how it all works out for you
Grady
