Carb baseline confirmed, throttle transfer slots even, idle mixture screws balanced, idle bypass used to set rpm, timing at 16* total at 34*.
Much better off idle though at the end of the run the idle rpm had crept up 200 rpm to 1200. Getting just shy of 11" vac. at 1000 rpm.
Very drivable now!

All said the Holley HP Ultra is better in 3 test drives than the original Speed Demon 650VS was in hours upon hours of tuning and testing. Haven't even touched the pump cams or squirters.



Something ain't right with the audio on this camera. Loose case or mic or? Sounds like there's a lot of lose parts on the rear of the car...........if there is I sure can't hear them. I'll try the backup camera in the same location before shimming, swapping cases and using the skeleton rear door.

Yeah, that is a bummer the audio is letting you down because it takes the fun out of watching to be honest. I hope the issue is easily corrected so you can show us what Norwood really has to say:yes:

Great to hear that the nut behind the wheel is pleased with the changes especially after what all you went through!

It's nice when you make adjustments and it responds :woot:

I'll wait and watch the HD vid :unibrow:

Sounds more responsive...

I'd check the muffler bearings.



:cheers:

It's pretty good, just got to push it into 3 digits and it felt pretty healthy for secondhand parts Gen 1 put together by a Springtuckey auto shop.

Do you really think sealed tapered unobtainium bearings could sound that bad?

Excuse the sloppy loop......first time with the NT05's in the wet, they aren't exactly grippy in those conditions.

Sealed muffler bearings are the best... until they become unsealed... then... not so much.



Really sounded like a camera issue.

That's the Hero2 I use off road so it's hit the ground a few times. The audio's never been that bad and it's just been sitting in the case? :( As noted I try the other one.

The new Hero3 is set up to use remote mic's and comes Bluetooth enabled. Control it with the remote or your iPhone or Smartphone and they've added cinema quality levels and more.

How tight is the cam when inside the plastic case with the door shut? I had to add some strips of tape on one end of mine to get some rattling to go away. It's a common issue.
