Its an Edelbrock. If the supplier of this carb is out there, please email me, I lost your info... I've seen some spring loaded needles and seats, someone said that they would help... worth a try I guess.. when I raise the front, it comes up very fast, I'm guessing maybe the shock to the carb is causing it to dump lotsa fuel into the motor... haven't really messed around with it much though.. thanks for the input guys!   Dan McIntosh Pavement Scraping 1964 Impala SS http://www.lowriderimpala.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Rodney.

Didnt used to do that, until I "retarded" my timing to about 8 degrees BTDC... Maybe I'll bump it back up...   Dan McIntosh Pavement Scraping 1964 Impala SS http://www.lowriderimpala.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Rodney.

The setup runs great, idles great at 600 RPM, pulls almost 20" of vacuum at idle, nice and smooth. The problem I'm having is that the car stalls when I turn relatively sharply (a 90 degree turn), usually left. I also noticed that I can swerve the car left and get the same effect (car almost stalls). The car restarts ok after cranking awhile, and/or pumping the gas, making be believe it's a gas starvation problem. The carb has side-hung bowls. Is this a known problem with Edelbrock carbs, or is there something else going on?   Tom Tomlinson   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of James Spradling Sent: Friday, August 22, 2003 4:49 PM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] awful quiet in here    I was wondering that also.
