    Edelbrock 660 electric choke

    The bi-metallic spring doesn’t care if it expands from electric heat or heat soak from the engine. Which coincidentally is a perfect situation.

    Edelbrock 660 electric choke

    Simply look at the choke plate before starting a warm engine. It should be fully open.

    Where to get quadrajet rebuilt?

    Many years ago I dug in & learned the zen of just how Quadrajets work and their common issues. I never considered jobbing out something that you could learn & do yourself. No dealing with getting screwed. No question about what was done & good insight to any remaining issue. It’s called a man...

    Stuck Hood

    If the hood springs are worn you may need to push the hood forward. Easy to do w/ a couple lengths of wood. Try 2x4.

    I like it, a lot depends on the length of the tail pipes. A better version would include a lumpy cam

    Best Flowmaster

    Been running 40’s forever. To avoid drone run em straight back & tip down. They bark & growl, but don’t drone.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Pulled & parked the plow off the K20. Officially called the season. Impressed w/ the way Rustoleum Massey Ferguson grey held up for the winter. Filled the temporary tank w/ 90 octane non ethanol & she seems to like it.

    Got me puzzled to say the least

    What was the last thing done to the truck prior to the noise appearing?

    Got me puzzled to say the least

    Pull all belts, alt, AC & try to duplicate. Shouldn’t have any heat shields that are notorious for rattle at specific rpms. Might have a partially collapsed muffler that would account for it.

    Craziest antitheft idea yet.

    Story today about a beloved 57 Belair stolen in Az. They cased the owners routine, unlocked his gates & winched up on a roll back. Neighbor got the truck on camera. Nothing you can do if they are determined pros. Best is a cheap hidden phone that you or cops can locate.
