70-74 BB pump to carb fuel line

Re: Holley Float Woes (Chris69)

Are you sure the float is able to move freely up and down? I mean draining the bowl and then manually reaching in the sight hole with a probe or something and moving it up and down by hand. I had one...

Re: What tool do you need to tighten the locking cap on the fuel level sending unit?? (GrandSportC3)

Re: GM 454 or 502 oil pan clearance (GDaina)

How are you with JB Weld? Seriously, unless you have 29" clearance on the top of the front wheel openings, pay the $150 and get the 4 qt oilpan kit from SD.

Re: Where did you get your door panels? (BUGGSY1970)

I got door panels, door pulls, shift console, carpet(80/20), seat covers(std. vinyl), and a-pillar moldings from Corvette America. Overall I'd say the quality was pretty good. Fit was a little off...

Re: Can't get the fuel pump bolted back in!!! (sammyb)

Re: Non working Unilight tach.. (BB wowbagger)

Dang Man. Mine quit last month and I thought it was probably the cable. I never really checked it out, I've been having too much fun driving. Thanks for the tip, I'll go look at mine in the am.

Re: O.T. GAS PRICES - RANT!!!!!!! (GrandSportC3)

They should be paying 10 cents a gallon (or more) to the Dept. of Veterens Affairs. They're the ones over there fighting to protect the supply. Blackout problems my AZZ! :_dupe:

Re: Told you so! 850DP too much (The Money Pit)

I run a stock jetted 3310 too. My cam is shaky, but I idle around 800 with no problem. I only have about 11 inches of vacuum at idle, so I switched to a 5.5 power valve. Also, I drilled holes in the...

Re: Try this one... Tailights... (VolVette)

Start simple. There is a plug under your dash, usually attached to the steering column, where your turn signal harness plugs into the rest of the system. It is about 1"x3"x3/16 thick, and has several...
