Default Calling Cuda; (Don)

Spoke with you earlier today on the phone and wanted to let you know the paper clip thing had no effect. Also was wondering about my power valve. The carb comes stock with blow out protection but have you ever heard of any letting go on these carbs ?

Not really a problem, just have parts on that dont compliment each other. Car is running rich but Don has just confirmed what I allready knew. I seem to rember changing the plugs a while back though and I dont remember them being that dark.

i think your problem is this :
' 318 .030 over stock replacement pistons, mp 484 cam, 3.23 gears.
that cam is big in a big block, let alone a low compression 318 with highway gearing.

Yes um.. I agree ! I was told by a fellow mopar-ee its a good choice.Big negative ghost rider Cant afford to do the 360 yet, Maybe a cheap comp cam might be the way to go and a cometic gaskets. $ Is a serious issue now so Im not going to do wallet exercises on it. Think Im looking for a cheap way out of my hole.
