Gadzooks! That thing sounds feral. I'd like to see the plot from the dyno. It so happens I am just now getting to a 2110 engine build with heads, manifolds, and Kadron carbs that you guys set up for me about 15 years ago! Life got in the way.

Hey brother, how many Kadrons can you fit on a type one Motor. I have been hearing stories about you for a long time my friend used to race with Gean . He was good friends with scooter at R&S performance where I worked for a lifetime lol. Anyway, I heard one time that somebody showed up with four carburetors instead of two.

@vwdarrin haha yes we did try 4x but no real success, best outcome i got was the 49.9mm set is built mated to a 2387cc with 14.6:1 compression, 46x38 valves and a FK98 cam (not 89, a 98!) The car had clutch problems and never made a complete pass. I have big dreams of one day putting it all back together!!

He's not matching the gasket to the port, he's using the gasket to match the ports to!. Now if the ports where bigger, then he'll match the gasket to the port.

@CP110 on some manifolds I'll have the customers just send me the gaskets to match the new manifolds but I like it when I have the head instead.

@mrkadron 9 күн бұрын
@MrSagerific95 i have used the Holley controller before and is really a good unit, mostly if your famillor with Holley. If not, it can be overwhelming for a novice or new to fuel injection user. Our dual throttle body kit uses Fitech software. The single Throttle body kit like this one in video is really for drivers and not targeted at performance applications or combos.

how these aftermarket valve guides were installed is what was wrong with this set of heads but all heads can have this type of problem. Its common on engines that did not have the geometry properly set or large cam/lift combos.Its also a big problem on lashcap street combos.

Two things wrong here 1st the expander gap and oil ring gap should be between 90° and 120° apart. 2nd The oil ring gaps should never be in lined or even closely in lined with the piston pins as the clip area and hollow retains oil that is thrust forward when the piston suddenly changes direction.
