From front to rear. LB = lite blue LA = lavender [pink] RD = red paint the red first then stand the shaft on end and let it run. paint the lavender next then stand shaft on end. paint the blue last and stand the shaft up. runs from 1/8" to 1/2" or common distance from front of shaft . .

ok good don't forget to get me your afr readings at full throttle. might still have you go up 1 size on the main.

ok xlnt . . this now makes sense . . if your hesitation with both mr gasket springs was from timing it is because it did not have enough at 1500 and 2000 . . how did it run after each test .. the single ford spring and the single ford and single mr gasket together curves are both really good

your numbers say your crank is bigger than whatever out of the box crank you are referring to. loose bearings will not click when the engine is turned over by hand but i would find the sound. .

depends on the engine . . maybe .002

ok hot at idle or while driving? like i said, you can't use an afr to jet a carb put the other spring in and give me same afr readings

o added more to my list above i need those afr readings i asked for there are different afr meters i have no idea what colors are where on yours. it gets hat at 12 or 14? at idle or while driving? .

none of this makes any sense you can not properly test anything unless you floor it from a dead stop do these three tests: turn your distributor to 16 then try it turn it back to 12 . . put the other spring in with one mallory and try it turn your distributor to 16 and try it tell us what happens tell me what your afr does when you floor it from a stop and from 35 mph. . it should go green a 570 carb is too small if you have a noticeable cam and headers. is your carb a mechanical secondary? .

wow i have never heard of that much. install your gears pull the cam gear forward put a straight edge on the cam gear and check alignment with lower geaar if the cam gear is too far forward by 1/8" then the gear is bad if the alignment is perfect than the plate is too thin. .

no, no, no, no, don't change the gas type . . it will not run any better and may mask/hide any detonation. keep using what you have been . . using 87 or 89 is better than using 91 because it will show detonation easier. instead of getting gas you could be installing that spring before i die of old age, lol. . .

my apologies, you are absolutely 100% correct and i had forgotten that it sounded like his problem was right off idle..

xlnt suggestion, however, he said he had no hesitation with my timing curve and he tested his car the exact same way with my setting and the mallory setting, therefore, there is no indication that he has any type of carb problem, however, if in fact the tests were not quite identical then who knows. if i just read that one statement from juit, i would also believe it is fuel related and possibly a combination of problems one of which could be that his secondaries are opening way top early. one thing is for sure here on post number 149, lol, is that the saga is not quite over. . .

. remove 1 mallory spring . . reinstall the ford spring you just removed .. . now you have 1 mallory and 1 ford spring .

ok try 12 then do what i suggested or do whatever you want . . if you bend anything i wont be able to help you anymore

yes, heres the deal . . that single spring was all that was closing the weights at idle before because the big spring is loose . . . this is how they work . . now you will have 2 springs with tension so of course the weights will close.
