Re: Gramma's Car: the new project!
Yesterday, I hung out a my buddy Al's repair shop (where old the old guys and old cars hang out). He was trobleshooting some carb issues on a friend's 1970 Challenger 440 R/T. It bogs under 1500 rpm when accelerating (no it wasn't the aircleaner!). I got to play chase car in Gramma's car. No problem whatsoever, keeping up! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]
I think I found a new customer for Eric's carb rebuilding shop. My friend has been through several Carter AVS carbs over the past year or two but also found out that the main cause of the problem was a hidden crack in the intake valley portion of the factory cast iron intake which masked a massive internal vacuum leak. Now that the leak is settled and the engine is rebuilt, he needs the carb(s) set up properly for the engine. So I gave him Eric's contact info.
