    Back in 1969 there was a guy Bob with a 69 Hemi Road Runner first time in a car with a 426 Hemi scared the crap outta me! We called him Hemi Bob thanks for the memories 😀

    I really like the Carter AFB and AVS carbs. Many of the factory Mopar versions had three step metering rods and sometimes even 4 step, but 4 step rods aren't common. The high performance jets use two step metering rods. To convert the Mopar Carter carbs to use two step metering rods, the raised rod covers can be replaced with the flat rod covers, along with 2 step metering rods and matching jets for tuning. The two metering rods need two metering rod flat covers and jets made for two step metering rods. Then the factory Mopar carbs can be tuned just like the aftermaket carbs.

      @G 18000HP you got that right. I come from a Mopar family. My Dad was an engineer at Chrysler for 30 years as well as chief union steward for UAW local 412. My Dad was an engineer in the Stress Lab. Known as the Boom-Boom-Room. They tested and tortured the revered and prized Mopar muscle cars sought worldwide. His daily driver had a Max-Wedge under the hood. Mom's ride was a 1968 Plymouth Fury wagon with the SC440.

    You wouldn't think of a camera as being an indispensable diagnostic tool, but Nick having that video camera just right above the carburetors is exactly what the doctor ordered. Interesting that the 426 hemi just happens by coincidence to be putting out 42 more HP at its rated rpms than what MoPar told the NHRA it put out. No wonder that the NHRA gave it a factoring penalty.

    Nick, true story . . close friend of mine was working at a Chevrolet dealership mid 80's. He was moving one of the cars that was just dropped off for inventory and it ran like crap ( not just because it was a bowtie). They moved it to the back of the shop and eventually got the engine out and apart . . . . . . THERE WERE NO PISTON RINGS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE SHORT BLOCK!

    Dr Panaritis makes the diagnosis and returns his patient to perfect performance. Just a guess as to what happened with the original carburetor rebuilder, he was probably interrupted during reassembly, in a hurry and behind schedule and simply forgot where he was in the process. Oh well, it found its way to the right man for the task. Well done 👏 and very respectful horsepower out of a stock build without pushing it.

    Nice work on those carb Nick. anytime i find that someone has forgotten something as simple as the jets, I would have double checked the metering rods and springs as well to make sure they were correct. it looks like it was reading good at WOT but seemed to be lean on tip in below 3000. I suspect the rods are incorrect or the springs are not right. I am leaning towards the rods since it seems to be fine at WOT but lean below 3k from the A/F ration in the video. I love the AFB and the Edelbrock Performer. both are great carbs. easy to tune and dont leak gas around the bowls or jet plates like a Holley.

    Hey Nick, As a retired motorcycle technician and machinist, it's nice to watch someone else doing the diagnosing and corrections needed to fix the problem. 😁 Did you remove the four jets from the rear carburetor to check if they were the correct size? Out of the thousands of carburetors I rebuilt and tuned, I can't remember leaving any jets out or any parts for that matter. 🧓 It would have been interesting to see how much torque and hp that engine produced. It's too bad the owner didn't want to know how much power that engine produced at 6,000rpm even though he's going to just put around, which to me is a waste of not running the car hard at times.

    Accelerator leather pump can shrink some from setting around dry, to refresh it, put a thin film of oil on it, and then go around the inside of it with a small screw driver lifting the leather slightly,then reinstall

    I was surprised you could get it to idle with no jets in the front carb. Great work.

    Since I live in Eastern New Brunswick Canada, I once needed spark plugs for my 72 Nova SS. My brother's car, a 73 Catalina was parked for the winter. I stumbled onto his underhood, took all 8 spark plugs, but never replaced them. Well, come spring my bro goes to start up his car, no go! Seized motor. Now I rebuilt him another motor, and life was good again.....oops

    Beautiful Engine!!! Good find Nick, of the issues with the front carb.I was wondering what caused the problem with the accelerator pump circuit on that carb? Maybe it has a leather piston seal that needed to be expanded to seal against the wall of the accelerator pump well... Whatever the problem was, apparently it went away after that carb was re-assembled.... Wow 468 HP and over 495 ft/lbs of torque!!! That car will FLY!!! I remember how many people were disappointed when the 426 Hemi's were being dropped from production in 1972... Luckily, they became available in the Direct Connection line, several years later... Real Hemi engines, not some pocket recess combustion chamber that the Third gen 'Hemi' engines now have...

    Nick 425 hp was horsepower installed in car with all accessories and they changed hp measurements I believe in 1970 so you are in the ball park.

    I'm fine with a manual choke on a muscle car, especially if you're dealing with 2 X 4 BBLs on a Hemi, I mean it kinda goes w the territory.

    Impressive work, it takes a lot of knowledge to be able to pin point the different issues when dynoing a engine. I see why now it's hard to trust others work, I agree how did someone forget those four jets or after the carburetor was built someone grabbed them and forgot to go back and put them back in, who knows.
