Not a chance of them leaking or moving now. The throttle shaft is now too large to fit with the new seals. Measuring in at .368, the shaft is machined down to .350.The throttle shaft is now too large to fit with the new seals. Measuring in at .368, the s If this was not performed, the seal would rotate within the shaft rather than seal on the actual shaft arm.If this was not performed, the seal would rotate within the shaft rather than seal on the Now that all machine work has been completed, the newly revamped baseplate is reassembled. It is interesting to note that there is a new throttle linkage hole for two possible throttle positions. The first hole positions the throttle for a more street-friendly application, while the second is more aggressive. When the primaries are open at around 15-20 percent in the more aggressive position, the secondaries also start opening.It is interesting to note that there is a new throttle linkage hole for two possible throt On the main body of the carburetor, The Carb Shop uses specially made high-flow boosters that will move larger amounts of fuel, which is required to feed the need of a blower mill.On the main body of the carburetor, The Carb Shop uses specially made high-flow boosters t In this photo, O.J. is wedging in the new boosters. To make sure everything seals perfectly, all gasket-sealing surfaces on the main body are milled down. A leaky gasket can wreak havoc, causing a loss in boost pressure.To make sure everything seals perfectly, all gasket-sealing surfaces on the main body are After the milling process is completed, O.J. chamfers or rolls all entry points to remove any possible burrs that may exist.After the milling process is completed, O.J. chamfers or rolls all entry points to remove Once the larger vent tubes are added to the main body (for better ventilation of the fuel bowls), it is complete.Once the larger vent tubes are added to the main body (for better ventilation of the fuel Both the primary and secondary metering blocks start out as blanks and are worked over like one of Rocky Balboa's punching bags.Both the primary and secondary metering blocks start out as blanks and are worked over lik The metering blocks are worked to ensure that the fuel curve is linear and moving the correct amounts of fuel.The metering blocks are worked to ensure that the fuel curve is linear and moving the corr « | 1 | 2 | 3 | » | View Full Article By Dan Ryder, Mike Harrington Enjoyed this Post?
