Am I understanding this correctly? My timing chain is bad? :thinking When I have a timing light on the balancer at an idle I can read the mark clearly cause it's in the same range (within 2 degrees) :Thumbsup But when I rev up to 2500-3000 the mark is all over the place (bounces 30-40 degrees) and I...

I called the 800 number on their web site and a recording indicated
they are closed due to a death in the family and are no longer taking
new orders but are processing and completing current/open tickets.

But nothing about if/when they will resume operations?

I'll take 3 shirts with the 68-69 grill front and tailgate on the back 2 in black both 4XL
The 3rd shirt same design in black XL
PM me with the amount or send a paypal invoice
I'm ok with the 2-3 week lead time.

Get them while you can...The news here mentioned the closing of a couple hundred book stores! Can't remember exactly which one borders or barnes & noble? maybe both

I did finally get in touch with my guy Monday that rebuilt the carb and yes it was already out of warranty :banghead but he did offer to exchange the float out for a new one no charge! :clap since this was/is a common issue with the plastic floats. once it comes in I hope to have her back on the roa...

to the site, lot of guys here willing to help answer your questions.

Looking forward to seeing the pics

I bought mine from Rockauto too and it worked great. :Thumbsup I also had an issue similar to yours, I had front turn signals and running lights, rear running lights and brake lights, but no turn signals! come to find out a wire melted inside the turn signal switch between the two plastic housings c...

I'm planning on replacing them both! Summit has Brass floats for $9.95 and two different plastic floats, one at $13.95 and the other at $23.95 not sure as to the difference in the plastic one's. :study My first step is to get ahold of the guy who rebuilt it (hoping he's back at his shop/work Monday)...

That was my intention however the weather got bad (really bad for TX) and I've been at home since Monday evening, Now suffering from a severe case of (Cabin Fever) I pulled :pale the rear bowl off the carb and found no debris holding the bowl open but what I did find is why I'm replying and needing ...

That is Cool!

I've never owned or operated a blown/supercharged vehicle
how much extra HP would you get on a 2bbl carb and stock manifolds?
anyone out there have one that could expand on this? I'm just curious
and always wanting to learn new info.

Cool, Thank you

Sorry to steal this post! But Gerry's truck peaked my curiosity! :thinking Gerry, very very nice truck! :clap What caught my attention was the two pictures of the rear of the truck, as I understand your truck is all original so what is so curious to me is the lack of reverse lights? I don't know wha...

That was my intent, however we have had bad weather since Monday
evening and the roads have been iced over every since Tuesday morning
and there has been no answer at his shop!

Thank you for all your suggestions and ideas.

The carb is (used) but new to me, I purchased it from the company that I use on all my carb work here in TX. He has rebuilt 3 other carbs for me and they all were setup pretty much dead on when installed. I'm guessing trash in the system too but wanted other input before I tear into a freshly rebuil...

Wow I thought I was the only one with that problem!
I had to do the same to my reverse lights to get them working.

I believe it goes like this:
D100, 200, 300, etc. =2wd
W100, 200, 300, etc. =4wd
Good luck with the restoration.
Someone will correct me if I'm wrong!

Can anyone give me a reason "besides a stuck float" why I have fuel pouring out of the secondary vent tube while the engine is running? As some of you might recall from my post I installed this carb and intake a couple of weeks ago, I finally drove the truck Saturday after installing the new wheels,...

I agree with 712edf, :censored Texas weather I took this first picture Saturday afternoon around 3:00pm and the second picture is Tuesday morning 6:00am, Yea it's the same driveway just about 100' further back, ain't no way I was gonna walk up there and kneel down in the sleet like the first pic :jo...

Oh man, so many projects so little time & money
