Just replaced the Carburettor on my 440 Dodge (Charger) motored RV.
She was running rough and erratic.the consequence of which the fuel consumption was up.oh:
Bit the bullet and bought a Brand new Edelbrock alloy 4 barrel carb from a seller in Sussex.
Read the blurb and watched the videos on the disc supplied which said it would run straight out of the box with only minor adjustment later to mixtures etc.
So,sceptical as ever, I fitted it....having to mod and remake some of the auto transmission and accelerator brackets to adapt to it.
Turned the key Sunday evening and after a couple of revolutions the motor sprang to life.....
She's like a new motor now.Running smooth and starting first time.
Absolutely delighted and would recommend their carbs wholeheartedly.:thumb:
Low tech works for me.
BTW The coil from a mini cooper works a treat.Just bought a new one.
Got the rest of the exhaust from Carolina classics and it is all on now.Sprayed with heat resistant silver paint.Slightly bigger to accomodate the exhaust gas flow.
Can highly recommend them if you need parts.Got the exhaust made after i sent them the drawings by email in 3 days flat.:Cool:
Just the distributor next and then........Just love it.
