    Going to carb from efi, best way to do fuel setup

    The tank insert has a -10 feed line, which is plenty big. Like punisher said, you need to run a return line bigger than the feed line on the A1000 if you go that route. The A1000 can be used for carbed or injected cars no problem, and if you are blowthrough, the A1000 is about the only pump i...

    Going to carb from efi, best way to do fuel setup

    I am in the process of converting mine over to carbed. I used the granatelli tank insert, but i found it on craigslist brand new. I called everywhere, and they were on backorder for at least 4 weeks. Even cartech was out of stock of their own brand, guy said they are real popular. I used braided...

    418 Stroker Motor

    jk351w, i am running a 427 in my car. It's only as streetable as you want to make it. The cam you are looking to put in it, looks a little small. It will work great if you are going for a totally streetable cam, but streetable can cover a large area. I drive mine on the street all the time, but...

    Stripped Dizzy Gear, Different Pitch? Pics Inside

    I had problems with a distributor in my car, i had an MSD dizzy in it and they tried to diagnose the problem with a stock distributor out of a 351 with high miles on it. The gear on the MSD was fine, but it chewed the gear on the old distributor in about 15 miles. The only difference between the...

    Need a little help guys

    Well, i did take it to a Dyno, but the dyno operator who supposedly knew how to tune with the PMS didnt know s**t about it and i got uncomfortable and took the car home, never made it above idle, so i bought a wideband and street tuned it, got great tune for it online that got me in the ballpark...

    Need a little help guys

    I hope so too, but if its not, oh well, it needed the springs anyway. Could be a fuel issue, hell, it could be something that i dont have right in the PMS. I need to take it to the track on a nice saturday and make some passes. The fuel pressure reads about 39psi with the vac line attached, i am...

    Thanks a lot! I just gor the springs in the heads, the ones i had in there were a mofo to get out, the keepers were stuck and didnt want to come out at all, and the motor only has about 300-400 miles on it. I should have it up and running this weekend and i will take it out for a spin. Thanks a...

    advice on blower cam

    I ran that cam in my car for a while. Its an alright cam, and its on a 114 LSA so that helps the computer out a little. Sounded pretty nice at idle, but you need to watch piston to valve clearance, because that one is pushing the limits. Just because its bigger doesnt always mean better. If you...

    Need a little help guys

    Thanks for your help guys! 86bluecobra- I called comp cams and asked them if that would be a good spring to use and the tech agreed with me on that. He said that the 977's should be perfect. When i ordered the motor i had the engine builder have comp grind a custom cam based on the needs...

I bought the heads off ebay and ordered the wrong part # and got the heads with the mech. roller springs installed which were about...

    Need a little help guys

    Cenok, here are some pics! 86bluecobra - To be honest, i am not positive that it was 4500, i was focusing on other things at the time, it may have been a little over 5000. From what i am gathering, being that the duration is so long on the XFI cams, that you need a high spring pressure to...
