    cam change

    Scott: I believe that cam is real similar to the old 289 Hipo cam. BTW the GM addative is being removed from their catalogs. NLA after existing stock runs out. Thanks EPA

    IDA Stacks

    Are there any sources for alternative Air Stacks for 48 IDA's. Specifically the type with the smooth, rolled over edge, in lieu of the OEM design?

    Would those stacks fit on IDA's?

    Indicated Uneven Weber Airflow

    One of the great aspects of this site is the ability to share and occasionally benefit from the situations and difficulties that we all encounter from time to time. I try to learn from them and apply the remedy if the situation or symptom happens to me. Hopefully others some of you feel the same...

He is using a Dart 4 bolt Iron block with Steel crank, Eagle Rods, Diamond pistons, AFR heads, Jessel Valve Train topped with a Pro charger belt driven super charger...

    Indicated Uneven Weber Airflow

    That is exactly what I was looking for yesterday. We used a smoke generator to pressurize the crankcase in an attempt to see if the manifold gasket was leaking into the lifter area. There was no indicated leakage whatsoever. Looking into the runner the gasket is not displaced. Nor did it leak in...

    Indicated Uneven Weber Airflow

    What can cause an uneven air volume reading while adjusting the idle on 48 IDA's? Yesterday the air volume between throats on a single carb was uneven. Throttle plates are phased the same. Compression is the same throughout the engine, valves adjusted. Gaskets were checked and are not...

    original Weber jetting

    Yes currently screws are open about 3/4 turn. Still have the slight miss. But it is only apparent at cruise speed (60 mph) not while accelerating with light throttle through the gears. Main jet ?? Air Corrector?? If I increase the throttle the least little (Very little) bit the miss goes away...

    water pump cavitation

    John: I delt with this very issue several years ago with a fresh 64 289 Hipo for my Cobra replica. I had been collecting parts for some time and purchased a reman waterpump from a parts house as a last minute fix. It was the type of aluminum pump without a back plate. The symptoms of cavitation...

    Radiator caps and PSI...Why?

    289's & 302's in the 60's & 70's ran 13# caps. 302's in the 80's & 90's were running 16# caps. They used reinforced rubber hoses for upper and lower radiator connections no metal tubes. I dont think a typical 1 1/2" or 1 3/4" OEM rubber hose would withstand more than about 16#.

    original Weber jetting

    Followup...........I changed the Idle air holder to a 100, (1.00 mm). It instantly changed how the engine ran (much better overall). The drivablity is quite good, transition seems to be seamless. Yesterday on one of the first opportunities to drive it any distance I noticed while cruising at...

    They make 2 different springs for that type regulator. Search Summit, Jegg or your local speed shop. Spring is about $4.50.

    Non Std Exhaust Gaskets....?

    Many of the newer aftermarket heads now utilize a wider bolt pattern for the header flanges to allow for larger tubes. You may want to compare dimensions with some of those (World Products, comes to mind as well as some of the specialized Edelbrock stuff). Maybe you will be able to find some...
