The vacuum advance should drop out of the equation when you go to wide open throttle. If it's just a transient problem, then it may well be the vacuum advance mechanism. Mallory used to make a Speed

It is a single plane. Windsor states his is a Torker 289 but what Edelbrock now lists is a Torker II which may or may not be the same as a Torker 289. They redesigned some of the early intakes but ot

Super Ford did a big test of intakes on a 5.0L crate motor. There were lots of intakes including the Torker II and a reproduction Tiger intake (a low rise intake, not the F4B. The test was conducted

When I get a chance, I'll type in all the numbers for each manifold. Data points were taken at 500 rpm steps. I wouldn't be surprised to find the RPM is an F4B. Several other Edelbrock manifolds hav

The Tiger manifold used in the dyno test was a low rise. Looked about as tall as the stock intake and performed about the same. Much better intakes out there. Dan Jones -- There is also the High Rise

The 1.08 means it's an Autolite 4100, rated at 480 cfm. Ford made two basic versions, one with 1.08" primaries and one with 1.12" primaries rated at 600 cfm. The former was used on A-code and D-code

These symtoms can also be caused by a weak spark from the ignition. You've switched to electronic ignition but the car was originally points so there may be a ballast wire or resitor in the circuit

By showing that I had weak spark, it led me to believe I had an ignition problem so I measured the voltage at the eye (Mallory Unilte with MSD coil). Even though the ignition was wired exactly as the

There's also the main bearing size issue. The 351W has 3.00" main bearings versus 2.75" for the Cleveland. Some say this makes a meaningful difference in bearing surface speeds but, for most applica

You're headers sound nice. Most 4V headers are 1 7/8" and still have a little taper to fit the huge port. If you look at the port, much of it is wasted space. The 2V port, despite being smaller, mov
