    @Paladin. This should more than make up for the one (1) Ford in the drive. This one used to be my Granddads....he bought it new off the show room floor in 55' for less than 3k. The guy who custom ordered it refused to take delivery due to the stitching in the seats being off. My dad got...

    I like most all cars / trucks made prior to 80'. This is my pride and joy... 1969 Lincoln MkIII. I drove this car from Kansas City to Panama City just to take this picture. (I suppose I had family down there to see....but they were just an excuse) She has been put away for the winter. And...

    I do believe it is stock...but I'm not 100% sure. There is no lope...vaccume is pulling 18-20lbs of mercury at idol. And....im pretty sure you are correct. I just got ahold of some bad info. Made a couple minor adjustments to the floats and the 750 seems to be much better. But....i did...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Got it.... that was not fun. Goofed and left the breaker bar hanging on the bolt for the ballencer pulley. Lol made such a HORRIFIC sound. But thankfully it did no damage. She seems to be running EXTREMELY well compared to before. But still going to get it timed this evening. My light...

    Well...a buddy hooked me up with an eddy 1405 (600cfm) to try out. And....ill likely be going back to the 1407 (750cfm). The 1405 moves it down the road just fine...but idk...just seems a little gutless at WOT. Ive not driven it enough to discern any increase in fuel economy. But once inget...

    This is the story of my life brother. Somehow managed to botch my distributer install. Now I have to do it the long hard way....and....its supposed to rain all week.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    .....I believe that they have allready pretty well messed up the fuel lines.....but im sure I could figure out how to hook it up. I'll buy one and keep it handy. Instilation looks like it should be pretty straight forward. Just pulled my distributor.....tbh im kinda suprised that it ran as...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Really? Thats nuts. I was WAY wrong. Idk what I read that led me to believe they were 600 cfm. Any good threads on this topic?

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I think the 454 Qjet is a 600cfm carb. But I could be wrong. On the 750 the primary / secondary apear identical. The 600 has significantly smaller primaries but secondaries seem to be the same size as the 750. Ive found its best if you are not giving it a full pump shot and its really...

    @Blue Ox Can you use diesel pumps with gasoline? It kinda just looks like a cheaper version of the Mr Gasket / Eddy pumps that we are talking about

    What have you done to your square lately??

    No, i have not. I'll check them out. Ive got a Holley fuel by-pass regulator on the way. So.....so as long as it makes at least 5.5psi I should have no issues.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Why do you prefer a mechanical to the in-tank route? I'm still learning theory behind all of these systems and am genuinely curious. Tbh......i think I'm more likely to go the in-tank route. My reasoning is that i'm kind of considering swapping the carb for an EFI set up. Pretty sure I...

    @bucket Can you point me in the direction of some good threads on the topic of pumps and pump conversions? Lol I have a hell of a time navigating forums on my phone. And I just have SOOOO many questions.
