power valve and jets

Holley makes a plug that looks like a power valve that plugs the enrichment circuit, probably less than $5.

Actually, I think you are right about the plug heat range, with the R43's they foul, with R45's they don't. When it's just idling from box to the show it tends to build up, then a few runs down the 1320 and it's all 'clean'

Wait a minute M. You don't take that Deuce to church anymore? Come on! I bet when Benjamin gets it he will run it like Drew runs his Yenko!

Besides BBBenny is thinking about making his ex racecar COPO streetable on occasions!! Yea Benny!

Of course I take it to church! It just likes to puff a little black smoke sometimes - church is only 1 mile away so it's not even warmed up by the time we arrive

I'm beginning to give up hope of seeing you and your FG Z at The Grove or at E-Town doing some of this:

Don't give up hope. I am just lazy! But....you never know.

Well, I switched over to a PV plug and rejetted (82s) my L78 this afternoon. Drove to a cruise tonite, and, on the way home, did some light to light testing against my friend in his 1969 350/350 vette. My car pulled extremely strong. Got home and pulled one plug, looked great. I'll probably wait a couple of weeks before completely endorsing this setup. Thnaks all for the info.

How's 3rd gear? That's where I noticed the biggest change when I went to the 'plug' - it pull's like monster truck, just keep the tires under it

My car has a TH 400, and 2nd and 3rd pulled real hard. I didn't have the room to let 3rd gear go too long. But so far I ike the way its running.
