While tweaking my newly installed Edelbrock performer carb, I noticed that even with the engine shut off or at idle, the secondary air flap/valve is 1/4 open. ...

Sorry, they still suck. Just because Tbirds had even suckier heads, doesn't mean the E7's are worth anything....
It is fairly common knowledge that the E7 head is a truck head. Just like the gt-40P is a "truck" head. I personally would be leary of any info on that site ...

I just put a Weiand Staelth Intake Edelbrock Performer 600CFM carb on my '89 GT HO 5.0 engine. Vast difference from the 2bbl intake and Holley 500CFM I had to...

Ignore what the vac guage says, except for the actual reading. If it was a different brand, it might be telling you that you were getting 40mpg, too. Do you...
Power increase is VERY noticable with the Steath & Edelbrock carb. I felt for a long time back when the engine had the 2bbl & 5ooCFM, that it wasn't reaching ...

With the vacuum advance disconnected you should adjust around 10 btdc then hook it back up and check over all advance at 4000-5000 RPMs I would hold it below...
Oh, sorry - I misread your original post about the power difference! There are a billion different Duraspark dizzies out there, so you can't rely on any specs...

James - Nope, the 351 dizzy won't work. Too tall. You should be able to spot a stretched chain by funky timing readings with the light. It'll jump all over the...

An old guy in Florida, at a parts house, told me that a 302 / 5.0 HO has a 351 crankshaft. I was wiring the engine for 302 firing order whrn I first got it...

... The cranks are the same, except the 351W has larger bearing journals and counterweights. The difference in the firing order is due to the camshaft. With...
So, does the 302HO have a 351W cam, or does the 351W have a 302HO cam? Differnce in cam timing certainly makes more sense than difference in cranks, re the...
