Not Ranked
Got it!
Just posted this on Club Cobra:
Okay, so AED had a 3 week back log. I decided to fix it myself, one last try. I changed the idle feed restrictors, 3 different times with different sizes, no good. Just leaned out the idle and did nothing for the transition. I also played with the idle air bleeds again, throttle plate positions, etc. Nothing worked, each step made it worse.
I did have a ring out session (to vent frustration) and learned it runs perfect! at WOT. It truly is a drag race carb. So I pulled it out and cleaned it all up, put in new gaskets and put it all back to bone stock as it came from Holley. Now it is on eBay.
I bought a Street HP 4150 - 850 CFM this time, since it has bigger body (smaller plates).
OUT OF THE BOX - PERFECT!!!
I changed the power valve to 3.5 (idle vacuum is 7) and adjusted the accel pumps, floats, idle mixtures and idle speed. That's it! Done! Cruises perfectly, idles perfectly, no rich spots, no lean spots, WOT right on. I don't even feel any less response or performance from the engine.
The Holley part number is 82851.
Now, I'm going to drive it for a couple weeks to confirm, then the O2 sensor can come off and the TP go on. (maybe the reverse of that) Hopefully the TP won't cause any issues.
