    Quadrajet to Edelbrock Carb

    By the way. Edlebrock says to use a four hole adapter with 4 hole gaskets. Don't pay Edlebrock their high price. I found exact one at NAPA for less than half the price.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Unloaded 3500 pounds of RR ties with wife. Took a couple of hours. Need them for retaining wall. Gauges still need help. Will call Intellitronix tomorrow. Keep forgetting the time difference. Hope to have them working for tomorrow's trip to town.

    Quadrajet to Edelbrock Carb

    Went from Eddy 1405 to Q-jet, professionally built. Wouldn't run right no matter what I tried. Put Q jet in "trash". Installed Eddy 1406. One pump to set choke. Turn key and add gas. Starts every time.

    "Proper Starting procedure" for Squarebody

    Race car was always perfectly tuned. Agree. Very easy to start. No choke. It just starts up every time.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Tach and MPH still not working. Drove 75 miles to pick up 3500 pounds of RR ties. And returned. Used phone for speedo. 38 psi oil sometimes speeds up to 68 (empty) fuel gauge needs dip switch reset. Shows 1/2 but seems to be accurate otherwise.
