Separate names with a comma.
I know a number of Shelby and Cobra owners whose cars do not have the original engine installed. One Cobra owner told me that since he actually...
And if you doubt these words, contact Mark Hovander and ask him what it's like to convert a 65 Shelby back from an R-Model "conversion" to a...
One more thing to check; Is there a possible air leak on the suction side of the fuel pump? The flex hose between the pump and the steel line and...
In the past, I have seen problems with the Holley needle and seat adjusters located on the top of the float bowl. The adjuster consists of a hex...
A few ideas: I take it that the engine has spark, (if you pull a plug and, with the wire attached lay it on the intake and crank the engine you...
The secondary plates are designed to be "slightly" opened at anything but WOT and the secondary side has an idle circuit. This is to insure fuel...
If there is fuel in the primary bowl, It sounds like one, or both idle passages between the throttle body and the main body may be plugged. To...
As a rule, main caps are not cast with the block. The HiPo caps will have to be fitted to your block by a machinist who knows what he is doing....
Not necessarily the wrong thrust plate, just a later year one. (They all have to have one) The original hi-Po units didn't have the ears on the...
I don't think that thrust plate was ever used on a HiPo, which is why it hit the outer edge of the timing gear. I would bolt on the upper gear...
And it happens all the time. Most likely the cars will either end up in an estate sale or just a trip to the crusher. There was a guy locally that...
Re: Would someone please explain to me how all of the cars that "normal" owners run . Has anyone heard some of the horror stories about guys...
In addition to the above, keep in mind that some of the most expensive, hardest to find parts for these cars have little to do with the HP engine....
Hard to tell from the photo, but if you had to grind down the fuel pump eccentric to make the timing cover fit, you better pull it back apart. The...
Is the fuel pump eccentric bolted flush against the upper timing gear? Last time I saw something like that the guy put the washer between the...
The Autolite 45 plug crosses to the BF-32 Motorcraft plug so the heat range is fine. The plugs are 18MM and have a tapered seat on the bottom that...
I think what you are measuring as far as push rod length is is a variation due to normal wear. From .056 to .062 is only .006 which is well...
I had the same problem on a 410 HP 427 Fairlane. The carb was a 3255 and had LeMans bowls. In the summer it was a beast to start as the heat would...
Priceless to a guy with a 427 Cobra or Fairlane who really needs one. Trouble is, in this depressed economy prices for everything have really...
Check the bottom of the needle and seat assembly where the needle contacts the float to make sure they are the same diameter as the ones in the...
For some reason the dual quad carbs have a number of unique parts. I did a pair of carbs for a friends 427 Galaxy years ago. The supposed "mostly...
What are the list numbers? You are right about the fact that there is a difference in parts for these carbs. Secondary diaphragms and needle and...
Re: Shelby GT350 carb return spring That figures, back then it was whatever worked. Most of us didn't even know about date codes much less...
Re: Shelby GT350 carb return spring I wonder why someone installed a GM throttle shaft in this carb.
What happened to your MSD? Did the box fail, or the rubbing block on the points?
