Issue found: carb throttle shaft bushing VERY worn
-
yes, higher rise than stock. I found several of the rockers loose - out of adjustment. will try again tomorrow
-
not sure on the copy issue - runners seem higher than RPM.
-
ok, I will examine. A Q-Jet by chance would not need a steel adaptor like a squarebore for a Crosswind intake would it?
-
I will examine this for a vacuum leak - currently mounted on a Crosswind manifold.
-
Why would it be that much different than on the 462 it was on previously? Throttle blades are completely closed - yet very high idle.

Cliff, having issues with a rebuilt motor. 60 over 400 with 4.00 stroker crank, KRE 85cc heads, cam is roller regrind to int dur 228 with 450 lift
exh dur 236 with 480 lift, Ground on a 113 lobe split. Some guy in Ohio or PA did the carb, IM distributor. Issue is the damn thing won't idle! lowest I can get it is 1700 warmed up (may ave smoked the rings already). 2 culprits I can think of. Carb sat a year - gummed up passages? I tried to shake all the gas out beforehand... 2nd, machinist installed cam - could be out of phase?
