Re: New toy 68 camaro

AFR seems pretty stable. Ive been changing quite a bit on the carb, its an edelbrock performer 750cfm, ideally i'd like to go to a predator for a bit more tunability. Only problem i'm having is in the transition circuit trying to get it to come onto first stage of metering sooner apart from that ru...

Re: New toy 68 camaro

On the road it must look quite intimidating with the matt black paint job . What do you think of the AFR meter , mines all over the place as the carb was the one i used on the 307 . It needs the jets changing and hopefully if it stops raining at the weekend give the car another run up the A11 and ge...

Re: Pete's Camaro

A little bit overdue for an up date so here goes . 18 months ago at my last trackday i managed to overheat the engine oil and knacker the motor so a new engine was needed .
