    Eyeball my carb...

    Every freaking cuss word in the books! Readjusted the float and replace the thing in the accelerator pump (square do hicky) and it still pumps gas out the overflow. Took the carb top off and bent the tab on the float so only a about a half inch in the bowl would tap the needle into the seat...

    Buy it now always works. Congrats on the sale for sure. Would love to do a meet and greet one day with ya locally and talk cars. Buy ya lunch. Be well worth the price to let some of that experience with these cars possibly rub some off on me.

    Thanks Doc. I had fun. I don't often get out to things like this but stopped by after work and before the big crowd. Still made it in plenty time to pick Mary Ann up after school!

    Eyeball my carb...

    Wow what a generous offer Jeff. Just feel if I have to take the manifold off I'm going 4v and not looking back. Have all the parts cept bolts and gaskets. Assuming I can reuse my 2v rocker arms. I just dont get how that little pin thing holds back all that fuel. Got a tip from a friend to take...

    Eyeball my carb...

    Blows fuel out the top overflow. Replaced the float and the little brass valve and fitting. Dang looking at that pic there still some junk in there. I didn't have to adjust the float to 7/16 it was right on that out of the box. Seriously that little float and the little brass pin hold all the...

    It cranks!!!!!!! But......

    I tell ya bro if that carb kit would have been much more than twenty bucks that is exactly what I was thinking. I've got front end issues, floor pan and trunk lid that needs replacing. When she gets road worthy I'm going 4v. I think this is just a float issue maybe that inlet valve in there bad...

    It cranks!!!!!!! But......

    Its the 2 barrel. I got a black float and a rebuild kit for 20 bucks. Gonna just fix the float and valve issue. Probably tackle it sunday. Thanks all for the kind words. It was like a validation of all the work I've done with brakes and fuel. As Ronald McDonald would say, I'm loving it.

    It cranks!!!!!!! But......

    Started up after a few primes of the carb with some gas. Runs pretty smooth too with zero smoke that I can see. Two issues I need help with: One is a minor one. The bolt that snapped on the water pump. I tapped it but was afraid to keep drilling for fear of going to far. Added three extra...

    Cole's build thread.... am I missing something here

    Had my buddy Newt from Newt's Exhaust and Welding stop by top help me bleed the brakes the old fashion way. He's a pro! His place use to be a Mineke before he ditched the franchise so he's done a ton of brakes. When we finished and he said that's one of the best brake pedals he's felt on a...
