Re: 302 motor ignition point setting?
I will look for 9B572 in the throttle plate, or even in the main body.
Who is the hot-rod carb guy in Florida? Seems I have bought parts from him before. Maybe he has what I am looking for if my primary carb is not compatable for this modification to get ported vac to my dist instad of manifold vac. "Have you thought of seeing how much vacuum is generated from the center carb with a vacuum gauge? That will tell you quickly what system you have and whether ported or manifold vacuum." - how much do I need? I suspect that with the additional two carbs rtaht vac is low. Just seems to me the more devices ya have the more chances for very small amounts of leakage - and they add up. At idle? At say 2,000 rpm in the garage? |

He is the CARB GURU here. Try to PM him and see if he can identify the carb(s). Need to know if there is any vacuum source off the center carb. I know you said you have the vacuum signal straight off the intake now. The outboard carbs should not cause loss of manifold vacuum if the throttle blades are adjusted closed @ idle as they have no idle circuits being dumpers. What is your curb idle RPM now? Then we can go further.

Re: 302 motor ignition point setting?
Here is an older post by Sal. The discussion was fuel pump quality. It may give you an information source -

Re: 302 motor ignition point setting?
Well after looking at my carb(s) they are not candidates for this modification.

I can live with what I have, just thinking if I can easily make it better why not... |

I think what you have is some period specialty carbs made specifically for progressive setup (end dumps) for that period. Have to have any ID INFO you come across off the carb bodies. Now this is very important, what is the curb idle speed on the setup now? Quote:

Re: 302 motor ignition point setting?
Yes, vintage speed. I got my setup from Dicks Hot Rod Carbs. well most of it...
Number on carbs where? If I had it to do over again I would have bought all my stuff from Vintage Speed. Last edited by Gene F; 12-29-2023 at 06:01 PM. |

Please get back when he ID's the CARBS. I am curious as to exactly what you have. You want a ported vacuum signal to the DIST.
