Well, wanted to take a buddy for a drive since i installed the carb spacer, put radials back on and the 6 speed is rebuilt, here is the result of goofing off:

Damn that car sounds good inside when you are on the throttle! But, you are the most traction challenged person I know. I think a Honda Civic with the A/C on would take you to 60MPH LOL.

Yea, the damn hard as hell 245/50/16s SUCK, a set of 295/50/16s are in the works right now. Than there are the 26x11.5x16 that are for serious business.

Is it just me or does that thing sound kinda shitty on the outside, i guess when i let off the throttle?

You have first hand experience riding in this thing, does it sound better in person? LOL

Sweet video...car sounds good. Did you notice any gains with the spacer?

The earlier throttle response feels better in gear, power does feel to come in quicker, but the top end feels the same, so i think i can say that it is helping the carb be more efficient. Cannot wait to get it on a dyno and do a before and after.

MTC_75vette

Thats good to hear I am glad you noticed a difference. I was looking at my hood and i dont think I have the clearance for a 1 inch spacer so I may give this a try, let me know what you think?

Did you have to change your jets after you added the spacer?

ZONES89RS

iTrader: (25)

Nope, i did not change a thing, but i do need to get a wide band on my car and see how rich it might be. That spacer looks interesting, i am sure it makes the air flow into the intake more properly distributed.

MTC_75vette

Yeah I might give it a try see what happens. What size jets you running in your carb now? I have 78s and 83s right now that's how the carb came. I haven't used a wideband yet but looking at the plugs I think im running alittle rich.

ZONES89RS

iTrader: (25)

Think i have 78 p 84 s, mine looks pretty close as it is on the pugs. Funny though, because running slightly rich at idle you cannot read it on the plugs.

Yea, the timing is more aggressive and the carb spacer make it run a bit better.
