SBC 350 with new cam will not start, only pops a couple times then nothing.

Where do I register?? I wanna take that class too..

Maybe he will enlighten us both.

It started with this:




And went to this:




By some miracle, my Holly carbed engines survived:

(1) Wheels up launches

(2) Dirt trackin' 4 wheel drifts

(3) Two by four sideways mounted

(4) Lap after lap of brake rotor glowing decelerations

For over 12 years of serious racing with never a jet uncovered.. How did I ever do it???. It's a miracle, I tell ya!! Wow ---- just WOW!!

Sounds like you're doing it wrong to me.

I knew it!!! Well, crap.. What's done is done..

Ehh, what are you going to do?

Ehh, what are you going to do?

Put on 4 Holley carbs mounted radially, so angles won’t effect at least 1 of them.

I'm working on the design as we speak....

I think we need @74 Shortbed to help us understand.

Hey @74shortbed!!! Pull your pants up and get over here..

Ok ok, been busy as hell just got back, so WTF is going on, lol..

 

[74 Shortbed]

So what's up with all this angle ****, lol..

It's a long 4 page story, but to bring you up to speed, read posts # 31, 32, 50, and 51.. Those will get you started, you can read the full thread after you submit your drafts for the preliminary design...

Like I said, it's a long story.. You, Donkey **** and myself --- , well, we got over 50 years of poor carburetor design to correct right here in the next few posts.. Check with Donkey ****, he's got this idea of a rotary manifold adapter to alleviate the angle ****...

Ok, just took a quick glance to see hat all I missed while i was gone, lol..

I think a gyroscopicly suspended carburetor attached to a flexible plenum intake manifold might be promising

huh...

Sounds promising.. Ok, now for the throttle cable.. I envision a gimbal based multi-point pivoting throttle pedal.. Cruise control equipped vehicles might present a challenge, but one I think can be easily overcome By using a GPS unit to track and plot the angle of the dangle...
