the mustang sure has had problems this year,   besides the vapor leak,  carb problem which I think I fixed,  now I was pputting it away for the year  I blue a power steering hose,  theres only 2 fittings took me 2 hours to mount it,  what a pain

Gerald;  99% of carburetor problems are fixable, no need to buy expensive new carb.  Ran my 69 year old Teapots to an end of season car show in Townsend Montana, yesterday, 440 cars,  They worked flawlessly on the 180 mi trip with one 6400ft pass.  80mph most all the way.  I know I shouldn't be doing that because its turning 3200 RPM in OD with the 4:10s, but I cant help myself.  38degrees in the morning, but came home with top down.  Terrible gas mileage!

Gerald.. for all around street performance.. can't go wrong with an Edelbrock... there are folks that love them and folks that hate them...They are indeed trouble free though......

I was just needling you. I have seen the work you have done and it is very detailed.

Just jumped out at me.

Thats it!!!!!!!

It performed well. but you could not drink it pretty!

ok,  update.   vacumm leak fixed,  now theres another problem,   says theres something wrong with carb.  ok,  I have a 650 double pumper on now,  what would be a good replacement?  I'll mess around  with it a little before I go buy a new carb

My main concern is the o/d. Can someone please help me troubleshoot it.  It does not engage the o/d unit.  It goes into freewheeling but that's all. 

I'm also trying to figure the rpm's at 50 mph running in direct 3rd gear.  I am having trouble with the calculations. I know input to the 3rd member is 1:1, a 3.89:1 final drive, and an 89" circumference tire.  A functioning o/d will reduce this number by 0.7.

TIA

QuoteHa!.... it was one of those aftermarket big ugly units(the name escapes me )....
 
I bought the car with it on there....
