Re: carb issues
pkrwud-
Slamming on the brakes would not kill the engine, or so I believe. I have gotten on the brakes pretty hard before and it did just fine. Ryan

Re: carb issues
Ok, here is the latest. I bought my own Vacuum gage thinking I might have a Vacuum leak. With the car in park, I had 15.5" and in drive I had 11” Now according to Holley, my 6.5 stock power valve would still be wrong, a 5.5 would be perfect. Is it worth changing?
Put the green cam on, using what I think is suppose to be the 2nd hole (see pic). Adjusted the pump linkage, to where the slightest touch would make it squirt the fuel, and then took it for a drive. Well....Ryan has some serious traction problems now.....(insert Ryan worshiping PKRWUD)  . I have no more hesitation off the idle at all.However, I will say that I still have the shutter in overdrive...and slightly in third, but not always. It is most noticeable when just cruising, with overdrive at 45 mph or so, right at 2,000 rpms? Any suggestions on that one? I am leaning towards Jesters recommendations of slightly bigger squirters now. Thanks, Ryan

Re: carb issues
Not taking anything away from Jester, cause he's never steered me wrong, but I don't see how changing squirters will solve your shutter problem.
 The squirters only provide a shot of fuel when the throttle is pressed to prevent a lean condition when the throttle blades are initially opened. They do nothing for part throttle conditions. If you don't have a stumble or bog off idle, then I would say your squirters are fine. Jester, did I miss something on your line of reasoning here buddy? I've been reading some of my HOLLEY CARBURETORS book and thought I was starting to figure out how these buggers worked. I'm also curious who's method of figuring the correct PV is more accurate....PKRWUDS or Holley's. Holley says to check vacuum at idle, in gear and PKRWUD says check it in Park. I ordered an 8.5pv today so I must have decided Chris was right

Re: carb issues
82gt-
They both have great knowledge and have helped me in the past. My knowledge of these is still elementary, so I need all the help I can get. Ryan
