Did you ever consider trying a 160 deg, thermostat to see how things work out?

I actually have a 160 degree thermostat and I drilled a 1/8 hole it to always keep a flow going through it. I was told this helps prevent pump cavitation.
The engine cooling system has never boiled over and the hottest its ever gotten is around 195.

Thanks Sandbird!

Dry and make sure both carb(s) and intake carb pad(s) are clean and flat.

Torque to spec.


Ok, I'll make sure they are nice and clean and flat, especially since this could be a vacuum leak.

I removed carbs. Hopefully I can ID to be able to get rebuild kit. Not sure if 1-(1406) means anything?

Also manifold ID 5-13 mean anything?

Front carb primary and secondary valves did not snap shut as well as the rear carbs did when manually operated off the engine Possible issue with secondary's not closing like Ted had mentioned?

Thanks Y blockers!

Also manifold where carbs mount seem nice and flat and true. Gaskets and spacers seemed to be ok. They are composite and not aluminum like I thought. Oh well I guess its not fuel boiling in the carbs.

The operation of the throttle shafts/blades is your first step. Sounds like you found your first defect. The blades have to operate freely in the bores.

Now for some bad news. It seems CHRY used this same design also (vacuum secondaries). So without the ID TAGS it is going to be difficult to ID and find the correct kit/parts. The CASTING ID NO you showed (and others) can be used to ID a carb, but all the references I have come across seems to be GM.

I am going to E-MAIL you a possible source of info about this CARB SERIES as I don't know if posting it is allowed. Whatever happens or you decide to do please let the board know as I am on a steep learning curve here.
