Latest pic of mine. Can't believe I started this post in 2003 and its still going strong!

 

Its a little messy and an old picture but you get the idea. Go Carbs!

 

Thats sweet

 

old pic did some cleaning up since then. but you get the idea

 

found a more up to date but not "to date"

 

Updated with fresh engine bay paint.

 

Updated pic of mine.

 

hey buddy, that 408 is lookin' great! what is the alternator bracket?

 

Thanks! The alternator bracket is from Speed Inc.. Its a decent piece but took some work to make it fit correctly.

 

What tower brace did you use? Looks like it clears pretty good.

 

wowzers that thing is pricey! 200! do you have any more upclose pics? maybe in your build thread? i'll look there. i'm going to see if i can build one for my little bro's and my buddy's cars.

where did you run the crossover vent to? i've run mine to the radiator side of the thermostat housing in the passed with good results, but am about to go to an electric water pump and need to put it somewere else. i need to go look at your build thread again, lol.

 

I think there is some more pics of it in my build thread but if you need some more close up pics I can email them to you(pm me with your email). My original plan was to run the crossover vent to the top of the water pump. But the fitting interfered with the alternator bracket adjustment so I had a fitting welded in my radiator.
The Speed Inc. bracket is a quality piece but there may be a better alternative now. The pulley on the alternator did not line up correcty on mine and I had to grind quite a bit off the back of the alternator to clear the head. I had to shim the bracket out about .085in and use a 5 rib belt, the front groove on alternator pulley stuck out too far to use. And if you shorten the spacer you have more of an interference issue with the alternator and the back of the head. Now that I've got it figured out its no big deal but it was a pain, it would be nice if a high dollar part would just bolt on and work.

 

its the 3 point for carbs from edelbrock.

 

Still the same 355 with things around it changed from whenever I posted my old pics...

 

86 camaro sbc

 

New 350 bored .020 over, speed pro mild cam, new pistons, holley street dominator intake, and 650 cfm edelbrock carb.

 

getting there, starting to look like a car again lol

 

Those of you who went from a tpi car to carb with mech fuel pump. How are you runing your fuel line from drivers side to pass side, and pic if you could.

 

My car was a 6 cyl. The fuel line ran down the driver side. I have a holley elec. pump and ran alluminum line down the passenger side.

 

Here is the 350 that came in my recently acquired Firebird!

 

heres my update as of 8/21/11

 

85 lb9 in my 83Z

 

Heres mine, Its a 400, still pretty much all stock.

Its not done yet but am trying to keep it as clean as possible.

 

What are you running for a fuel pump on that 400

 

I seen you asking about fuel pumps. Just a note of advice. Without a vapor
return line you will most likely get vapor lock during the summer heat. I learned
this the hard way when trying to use a Holley performance pump which did not
have a provision for vapor return. It seems none of the standard performance
pumps have vapor return option. I finally found one that did and haven't had a
vapor issue or fuel starvation issue.

P.S. ooh and by the way, i ran a braided fuel line and the vapor return line
through the frame and exits right near the fuel pump.

 

I believe mine has a provision for a return because right now there is a six inch piece of hose with a bolt in it. And a couple of days ago someone posted what all three line in engine bay were for. So now I just need to find that thread and hook up a line.

 

It's funny you should ask that. I am actually trying figure that out at the moment. I'm trying to figure out external fuel pump mounting and plumbing so if u guys got some ideas that whould be great

 

I just saw you had a block off. I have been looking at pics here for myself. Right now the way it works is that all my fuel lines are on the drivers side and pump is on passengers side of engine bay. So as of now I have a nasty looking rubber hose going over my water pump down to fuel pump. Looks like poop. Some guys retoute their lines from pump over to passenger side then up, but for myself with cost and time that is not an option. Another option which I haven't looked at would be a eletric pump then I just have to go from line in engine bay to carb

 

here is mine new air intake setup!!

before:





AFTER:







Thank for watching!!

 

Where'd you get the pipe/rubber jackets to make that upper hose? I wanna do something similar lol

 

mockup

 

im sure that setup will confuse the heck out of a lot of people.

 

i buyed the rubber jackets here in the netherlands!
i think you can buy it in the usa also.
the size is 4 inch.

thanks for your comment

 

Yes. That setup does confuse me. What is it? And what type of intake is that?

 

Yea I am very confused what is going on there.

 

SBC w duggan heads & front drive distributor setup.

 

Can't find those on this continantye

 

Australian stuff Can't find it on this continent either

 

Ya . I looked. Only place I saw them was in Australian forums. I would like to get me a set up someday.

 

Where can i find more info on them?

 

nowhere, except a site w/ Robert Psiala's boats from OZ, search for duggan headed. There's 1 more guy w. these heads and the spider manifold on ozrodders forum. There are very few of these around. As far as I know, I'm about the only one w. the header adapters. Haven't seen anyone else with them.

Heres my 350
