I been running into a problem with my road runner. I have the 440/6 pack set up on it an i cant get the car to idle right at all. Its a new motor but the problem has been carried over from previous engine as the same fuel delivery has been used on the new engine,Although i cant even drive it with the new engine. I have rebuilt all the carbs In fact the center carb has been off a few times in the last couple days. I have Narrowed it down to a vacum leak/warped base Plt. I have found on the outboard carbs from the throttle rods I can spray with carb clean an idle clears up some, Or holding my hand over the rear of the center carb helps too. The motor revs fine but if held at a high RPM it gets very choppy and wants to come down. Im about 1.5 turns out on air idle screws ive gone farther with them but not getting any reaction at all unless completly closed. I have removed the throttle rods and they are very lose with lots of play.... On a very limited budget can this problem be fixed without carb replacment ? Cant seem to find new base plates anywhere. Is about a 10.5 comp motor, performerRpm allm heads, light bumpty cam and 34 degrees total timing. But like i said THe other engine ran the same.
I have a set of 67.h.p.heads and was wondering if there is a demand for them? They were rebuilt a while ago and have never been on a motor. Was going to have them street ported but should i just keep them stock and sell them or arn't they worth that much anymore?
I wanted a High Intensity Discharge kit which is a very cool light and better visibility especially during night driving. I opted to go with the single beam HID kit too and love it, they are cheaper on ebay but I wanted a warranty so I got it here Sealed Beam Headlight Kits, or you can try one of the vendors. Also some of the forum sponsors selling Headlight Kits usually have a sale going on. Either way its a great system, and very easy to install.
Is anyone out there looking for this car? I need to sell it, and don't really know what is is worth. If you are interested, please email me. I live in Houston, TX. cheryl@cherylkelley.com
