vettedude102 Posted June 3, 2011 Report Posted June 3, 2011 I have a 1979 corvette and I have bored it .30 over, shaved the heads 20 thousandths, and I have a .488/.488 cam. The quad came stock on the car and when I try to kick in the 4 barrel it doesnt automatically kick in. The car almost dies. If I am running about three thousand RPM then sometimes it will just kick right in. If anyone has any idea of how to fix it it would be greatly appreciated.

keepinitloud Posted June 3, 2011 Report Posted June 3, 2011 been awhile since I have messed with a carb but I believe those have vacuum secondaries might have a pinhole in the diaphragm also make sure the linkage is opening all the way Quote 06 chrysler 300C Hemi one mmatts dreadnaut 15 powered by a planet audio vx 2200d fosgate p200 running planet audio 8" midbass drivers and super compression tweeters stock battery and a stinger spv44 Irragi 300 amp alternator big 3 1/0 http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/55075-system-in-my-300c/page__view__findpost__p__763656__fromsearch__1

OrionStang Posted June 3, 2011 Report Posted June 3, 2011 junk it and get a holly with mechanical secondarys. This. Yours will be a PITA to diagnose and cost money and time to fix. Just get a nice double-pumper. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread

pektel Posted June 4, 2011 Report Posted June 4, 2011 These guys speak the truth. Ditch the quadrajunk. Quote
chewie Posted June 4, 2011 Report Posted June 4, 2011 your throttle repsonse is gonna be amazing once you get used to a mechanical secondary. and get it tuned in for your motor.. jetting/powervalves/squirters. someone on a performance forum should get you close to optimal tuning. but i say as long as its not running lean or fouling plugs. leave it alone.
