The car has two power valves. Both 6 both blown. I need new power valves and was told to try 6.5 as I have about 15 or 16 inches of vacuum. I also have 80 idle jets all the way around...and was told to try 83 in the rear bowl. Car is supposed to have 550hp.
Runs great till about 4500 and runs out of power. Any suggestions?
This is a non vacuum advance set up. Ive seen people do a power valve delete in the rear bowl...but im unsure what that would gain me
what kind of fuel pump do you have? I have a 428 with a 750dp and it stoped pulling around 5300rpm 3rd gear… add’d a carter electric pump to the fuel line and it pulled pass 6300rpm on the track .
