EndStar Posted September 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 Get the Clifford intake and run a 500 cm carb and rejet it i want to keep it more original in that area, so im keeping the SU's for now at least Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 GM Quadrajet? Maybe a smaller Holly? Wasn't there a 390cfm 4bbl made? https://www.holley.com/products/fuel_systems/carburetors/classic_holley/parts/0-8007 Smaller is better than larger or too larger. An L28 needs only 296 CFM at 6k.

Spoona_Jay21 Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 seems like a good start to a good project B) kinda excited to see where this goes... i'll be back..... Quote Link to comment
EndStar Posted September 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 im always open to ideas, because im still not sure exactly where i wanted to take this project. not sure if i wanted to leave it as is, or paint, what i should do on the interior. But it sucks getting parts here in MI cause everything is more expensive. Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Hook up that block vent to the PCV valve. Yoru engine will run cleaner longer and extend the oil life. Quote Link to comment
EndStar Posted October 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Hook up that block vent to the PCV valve. Yoru engine will run cleaner longer and extend the oil life.I'm pretty sure I have the hose that goes from that to the air box, that's what I plan to do. I know I'm missing a couple parts and gotta leanlrn how to properly hook up everything.but its fun time! Quote Link to comment

The block vent doesn't go to the air box, it goes to the PCV valve in the center of the intake. The valve cover vent goes to the air box. Quote Link to comment

Does it work on oil that's 2 years old and has about 10 miles on it? Haha... Quote Link to comment
