    Oil pan II

    Received moroso pickup. It has 2 areas that looks like it needs to be bolted as far as i know the almost stock one doesnt resemble this at all..been a while summit said the oil pan would work on 72 monte and dude recomnended this very pickup. I havent got pan off yet but is there somethin im missing...i think whats throwin me off is the bolt plate
  2. I thk overcarbed but i thk i can rejet to compensate dunno yet
  3. Yeah. I thought gauge was broke...its around 8 to 10. But aint timed yet
  4. I used the google machine fml i hate that... its 50/50. Half say better half say worse like yu said a bigger cam might make a huge diffence ..
  5. Yeah im kida a newbie compared to yall...used to wrench alot in 20s and 30s. Now north of 40. ..picked it up again and enjoying this forum and this club plus doing my own $%^^t..its rewarding. And hell lot cheeper plus love learning things
  6. If doesnt work way i want ill just goto carb base fmv
  7. I lost all the recipts and everything i put into it 15 yrs ago...i know heads and rockers. I know installed longer pushrods so def bigger lobed than the performer rpm that was in it...i cant remember. Sucks and misplaced cam card in a move ...live and learn
  8. Not sure i thought was around 244 246 duration .50...round 510 or higher lift...hydraulic flat tappet...i dunno i still think less air resistance more vac. But its only 8 inch difference
  9. Im thinkin less distance. More vacumn. Less resistance ina shorter span kinda yu would think...like a vacumn cleaner
  10. No clue ive ran before to carb. Im gonna try direct to manifold. It is a short hose tho...kinda a really unuser freindly design by edelbrock
