    My 289 with the same Holley on it left me stranded on the side of the road twice. Couldn't keep fuel in the bowls. After several hours I finally found that the rubber plug on the ported vacuum at 7:45 had disintegrated. Used a drinking straw to get home.

    Jeff excellent how to vid. Glad I subscribed. You guys are at the top of my list considering all the choices available on you tube. Enjoy all your presentations, they are very well done. Clear, concise and articulate. Maybe you can help me? I currently switched from a Holley 600cfm w/electric choke to a Quick Fuel 600cfm w/electric choke. Any advice or vids on set up and performance out of the box? Application: 1970 F100 SB 351W C6 Aftermarket Comp cam 518/518 Lift with headers. Keep up the great work.
    Thanks in advance!!!

    • @AutoRestoMod
      @AutoRestoMod  8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      We eventually moved to the ported vacuum on the side of the carb as per Holley's instructions. We were going off of Ford's info for the vacuum advance. After moving to the ported vacuum it ran much better.

    Nice Wagon. I just love the video. I have a 1972 Ford Galaxie 500 with a 400 engine. I'd like to have a pair of headers on it. Do you have any idea who may have a Header for my application?

    • @AutoRestoMod
      @AutoRestoMod  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Mauro Pietro Not right off hand. We will say that we are running the manifolds on the 351 and are quite happy. Not sure we'd want to the trade-ff of the day to day hassle of headers for the little bit of power you'd see on a 400. 2.25 dual exhaust with a cross over would probably serve you way better.

    I have a holley 650 double pumper with electric choke and mechanical secondaries. You discuss the ported vacuum port and how it's not necessarily for the vacuum advance for this carburetor. My carb has the power vac port for the brakes in the back and a PCV & Full Vacuum port on the middle of the primary left side, and I also have two vacuum ports below the primary bowl. Should my disty vacuum advance go to the port on the front of this carburetors base plate and not the PVC and full vacuum port which is on left mid front of my carb?

    • @AutoRestoMod
      @AutoRestoMod  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'd try the manifold vacuum first. If that is not giving you what you need go ported. But exhaust all your options on the manifold vacuum first.

    • @jeffmorse3150
      @jeffmorse3150 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      So here's the cool thing... I put my Holley 600 CFM with vacuum secondaries back on because I wasn't liking the newer 650. I did move the disty vacuum advance to the manifold and I was surprised how well it was running. A much smoother idle and better acceleration than the last time it was on. This was a new carb that I purchased recently too.
      So I then decided to see if this would work for the 650 cfm. I put it on today and used the same manifold vacuum port and the curb idle was @ 1100 with the screw backed all the way off. I then moved the advance back to the port on the primary and I was able to drop the curb idle down. It seems like it's not getting the timing advance when I'm taking off from a stop. There's a slight hesitation at first but then it wants to come alive and dare you to crack open the secondaries.
      I have two new carbs now that were purchased direct from Holley. The 600 works great and the 650 has me on youtube looking for answers and working with Holley tech support.
      Thank you for your youtube post.@@AutoRestoMod

      We use the stock PCV valve and grommet for the Cleveland. The hose is a factory type that attaches to the inlet provided with the air cleaner.

    trying to figure out jetting, 1967 Pontiac 4 speed HO , stock motor. Running a 670 Holley Street Avenger and moving jets between 65-70 size, what would be a good jet size for this motor, in your opinion

    • @AutoRestoMod
      @AutoRestoMod  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Honestly it's all in the plug read. If it's a 400 HO then I would say that the 70 jets are a starting point and move up from there.. But it's really going to depend on what the plugs read.

  • @flinch622
    @flinch622 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ported vacuum... My understanding is it is only used on some vacuum advance designs, depending on distributor model. Most will never use it. If you need it, you REALLY need it and wont get timing curve to behave well otherwise. The larger port on that base? Handy for modulator on a transmission where the manifold does not have it's own port to hook up.

    • @AutoRestoMod
      @AutoRestoMod  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I will try both. sometimes ported works better, sometimes manifold.

  • @canopener505ify

    Seen this asked everywhere but nobody has a definitive answer. What do you wire the electric choke into?

    • @AutoRestoMod
      @AutoRestoMod  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wire it into a twelve volt switched. That is the wire is hot only when the car is "run".

  • @adam8888d
    @adam8888d ปีที่แล้ว

    In my exsperiance The ported vacuum on the side of the carb is the correct place to hook up the distributor and not the base plate. If you hook up a vacuum guage. You will see the base plate has less vacuum at higher revs and will not advance the timing.

  • @tkmoutdoors9930

    What vacuum port would the line for modulator valve on a TH350 hook to?

    • @AutoRestoMod
      @AutoRestoMod  ปีที่แล้ว

      There should be a vacuum tree on the back of the antique manifold somewhere. That's the port for the modulator.

    Hey, I have a 1984 5.0 Windsor motor I'm trying to find the best carburetor for my car I bought a Holley 600 series which requires a lot of after market adjustment so my question to you would be what is the best carburetor to fit my stock intake manifold.?? Thanks for reading.

    • @AutoRestoMod
      @AutoRestoMod  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not sure what you mean by aftermarket adjustments. Most carbs will require tuning to run optimally. Also, is the intake a 2 barrel or 4?

    So where do you hook up your power brake booster vacuum hose?

    • @AutoRestoMod

      Depends on the carburetor. Most Holleys have a port either on the back under the float bowls, or on the passenger side rear of the main plate.

    Isn't the bigger vacuum port for the EGR valve hose?

    • @AutoRestoMod
      @AutoRestoMod  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is a larger one for EGR on the back of the Holley base plate. On the front passenger (right) side is a port for vacuum.

    • @danielesilvaggi
      @danielesilvaggi 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for that, it's just that the person in the video says he doesn't know what the large port is for. Hence my question.

    • @AutoRestoMod
      @AutoRestoMod  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The two ports that are right together are both manifold vacuum but the larger port is too large for vacuum advance hose. I THINK it is for things like power brakes...but I'm not totally sure.

      Back the screw off, it should only effect idle when the choke is in operation. I've had Holleys that the red cam doesn't retract well. check operation on that and use some Gibbs oil or other light parts oil on it.
