Re: Need some input for a 2bbl problem
Yes, it could have been the air. Lean it out.

Re: Need some input for a 2bbl problem
Agreed... even on Saturday, it sounded like it had a little dead spot in the middle of 1st gear, but sounded good down track. Sounded like it needed more gear & converter.
You can run a good bit more timing than that can't you? Always ran our 360 stuff around 36 degrees. Yah.... I couldn't believe that the barometer dropped a tenth each day, like it wasn't bad enough! Some people were off a couple tenths from good air!

Re: Need some input for a 2bbl problem
Thanks for responses.
Billy I will try it that but finding 4000 AA to test in will be a challenge lol. Michael, I just went from a 3200 convertor to 4200 and run 4.56 with a 27 tire. In the quarter it runs out of gear at about 1200 ft and won't go past 6400. On sat it was breaking up but not like Sunday.

Re: Need some input for a 2bbl problem
I checked that on sunday morning after the monsoon. Cap and rotor were in good shape but the wires have alot of miles on them, going to replace this week. I think Billy is right the more I think about it. Probably as simple as leaning it out

Re: Need some input for a 2bbl problem
What temp were you leaving at?
My 283 is a 10th slower at above 140 temp and feels like two slugs instead of its normal one....
