Not Ranked
I have build number 1220 from Custom Cars. It was delivered in June 2013. It would not start when delivered. To unload from the car carrier we removed the air cleaner and set the choke. I had nothing but problems with the car starting for quite sometime. It has taken me a year to sort out the carb and timing problems. It was also built by Total Engine Concepts. If I knew what I know now I would have bought from Vintage Motorsports. Here is my set up:
1. Timing is 10 deg BTC total advance 34 deg at 3500 RPM
2. Idle is 950 RPM
3. 670 cfm Avenger Carb idle screws set at 1 turn out from closed.
4. Choke set at 2.5 marks
5. Carburetor floats set just below center of site glass
Just a note, when cold I have to tap the accelerator three time to start. When hot I need to pump the gas peddle a couple of times to start. Don't know if this normal but it is what I need to do to start car. Any suggestions from anyone?
