Re: '67 Camaro E/SA redo
Carb isnt in front of me Brent and I can't recall the number. I know someone commented before it was jetted like a SuperStocker. No primary needles in these either. I put CE secondary rods in the '67 to begin with. The car was originally running with 40 degrees timing...I have since backed it down to 36 degrees with the new distributor.

Re: '67 Camaro E/SA redo
I have always had the best luck with DA .044 tip secondaries on K hanger... anytime that ive tried to richen it up a tad, i see loss in 60ft( about .01 or so) and about .02+ in the 1/4 mile... with any engine the carb has been on. I went from 11.04/1.48/120 to 10.81/1.440/122.33 with just those mods i mentioned earlier... in the same basic conditions...and being a Pontiac, big cube, i run timing locked at 33-34* ... the 400 may take a few more degrees, not sure yet....

Partner went to KY yesterday to pick up the transmission/convertor...likely to put it in the car this Saturday. Been having doubts about my choice in front brakes...not in the ability to stop the car, rather being able to hold the car in place for burnouts. It just didnt feel right testing outside with the original set-up...even without the system being bedded I had the nagging feeling it just wasnt going to perform up to snuff. I'm going to go ahead and swap calipers and be done with it.  Got a new hand held weather station...  Plans are to dedicate a laptop and interface the weather station with it. I'll use the laptop as a log book and load some type of software (yet to be determined).
