I am still learning how to tune alcohol. Burn marks are different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camatv Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 hmm need to gap at .18 on the plugs, make sure the ignition is REALLY good need oil that mixes with alky castrol 927, klotz supertechniplate and redline alchohol oils? need FRESH alky not that stuff thats in your buddies garage from 2 years ago that he gave you for free if running ANY other carb besides lectrons you will have to drill dump tubes and buy needles and mains and much larger pilots. you will probably blow up a few motors from lean hangs and sucking the bowls dry or wrong jetting etc. if you really want to go to alky the best "noob" alky carb is the lectron set up by PACKARD! MUCH easier to tune and much less likely ( but still will) to blow a motor. its really best to have a experienced alky person help you out the first time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRed350x Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Drill your gas cap vent tube out bigger. Pingle fuel valve billet bowls power jets drill dump tubes drill mains bigger pilots different needles spark plugs gapped tighter pickup coil gapped tighter alcohol domes oil that will mix with alcohol purge when you're done.
