Thanks for the part number. Yea, 228 makes it a little rough for one day after work but, if I spend another week on it that might not seem like an issue. My biggest regret right now is that I blocked the cross overs and now my choke doesn't work properly, I am gonna have to undo that in short order, rather than get hung up trying to fix something that wasn't broke. Never had an intake run cold enough not to work the choke stove around here and I usually don't run 195* t-stats either, strange.




Corrected the pt.# P4529060

If the idle didn't change when you sprayed around the base gaskets I wouldn't worry about them.

I wouldn't necessarily but I don't mind having stuff on hand so next time I have them off I can update, I've had them off enough times at this point they probably need swapping anyway.

Well, I over jetted it, put a little more total timing than I would like but not dangerous, I went 600 miles Friday, stayed in Pigeon Forge for the week end and then did 650 yesterday to get to Doylestown. Other a having to pay attention to it trying to stall at idle when the mechanical would fall out it went off without a hitch and NO surging at highway speeds . I plugged a few plugs before taking off yesterday morning before my ride and they looked fine. I am gonna work on the distributor this wweek up here to see if I can correct it. It feels/acts almost like the wieghts are sticking when you come back to idle. I will try to up date when I find the conclusion of all of this.

Replaced the distributor tonight with a new Mopar single point a buddy had with my electronics in it, immeidiate improvement, it will idea, set it at 12 initial, total is right at 34 all in by 22-2400. Drove well and had good power. I didn't really have time to adjust every thing out and will hopefully get a chance to tweak it tomorrow night. I am convinced that the either the wieghts or the plate was sticking, now I just have to talk my buddy into letting me keep the distributor. My guess is that it wasn't sticking early on and after some driving it began to stick, progressively getting worse. The question remains was it causing the original surging I was trying to fix. Chances are I wont swap the jetts back to 64s until I get home after the Nats, I'm OK with running a little rich with all the highway driving. Feel free to find me at Carlisle or the Nats and bust my chops, I deserve it.

Thanks for all the help and input, Kevin

4397 miles! but she's back home tucked away for the night in the shop, tomorrow I will put her up and give her the once over but in nearly 4400 miles I replaced the distributor (didn't cure the idle in the end but it did help it) changed the oil once, replaced the passenger exhaust flange gasket twice and adjusted the clutch. Not too much to complain about and those who I took for ride knows I didn't baby her. Time to rest.
