Great Videos. I watched all three. So I have a 1987 Ford RV E350 with a Holley partnered 4bbl. I don't have any room in there to do all these adjustments. I have to build it, slap it, and go. I was thinking the screws on both side, just turn out 1.5 times. Hopefully the floats will be correct, and go. I may be able to adjust the floats. I'm nervous, never rebuilt a carb, but it's leaving from the accelerator pump center, onto the manifold. Will just doing the basic idle screws be enough? I'm not looking for extreme snappy performance, just go, secondary works, and it doesn't leak. Also...can you assist me with what kit to get? Holley built it for Ford, but the list number doesn't have an 'R' at front, so that Holley chart doesn't seem to work. The List number on the carb is 50260-3 Manufacture date is 2616, so it was manufactured June time frame 2016, but it's an RV, and she has sat a lot. I just got her from the Lady who owned her before. Carb is a mess. It's electric choke, and I'm guess vacuum secondaries. Interesting thing, is when I first got it running, the down kick didn't seem to work, but I've driven her a few times, up until accelerator pump started leaking, and the kickdown did work one time, otherwise it was just dumping gas until it went faster. I'm so nervous about rebuilding her. I'll be using the carb cleaner in a can, and compressed air in a can...I don't have a big shop or garage. Your videos have calmed me, but a couple things, my fuel inline is different than yours, but the core carb, I presume is just like yours. Could I use that same Edelbrock kit? Internet isn't helping with that 50260-3 number. Thanks for the videos and your time.

Good god ,everybody do yourself a favor and mute the video.

What do the axels have to do with top speed

I noticed this guy did none of the oiling mods Brent Lykins offered in numerous videos. Did nit talk about chasing threads etc. He may have done them, he just did not talk about them.

It’s a great looking and sounding car and a prime example of 60s / 70s Pontiac muscle !

I don't believe it's recommended to reuse head bolts.

So theres no ground wire hooked up on this?

I put efi on my AMX it was a pia.went back to carb.

Carb For the sound aesthetic and overall badassery Efi For peformance Fuel economy And Not as much But 25%less badassery

What was wrong with the color green? I own a 70 Forest Green L34 4spd with white stripes. I happen to like the color. It's different from the norm Cranberry Red. Really I like all the color choices that were available for the 70 Chevelle line. You know, to each their own. Great video and two fantastic cars. Thanks for sharing.

those blocks arent that easy to find. i would go for 6000 max thats all you need save the block do not destroy it its one of gms jewels. it will make a 350 look like its standing still on take off if its set up right. my brother had a worn out 327 2 bbl with a 4 speed saginaw in a beat up 1968 camaro that poor thing had tons of power but it beleive it or not burned more oil than gas. nothing like sitting at a stop light and having to rool down the windows chocking from burning all of the oil .it had a broken rear leaf spring in the rear was scary to drive.hesold it to a freind and his freind had got stopped and got a ticket for exessive oil smoke. pretty rediculous. dont know what happened to it it was about 40 plus years ago.thought i would run that by you. a nice set of flat top forged pistons, 0.030 over,cam and dual plane good carb electronic ignition and hang on. you dont need any zombie ls stuppidity. just one screamin s.o.b ing 327. i am sure it will be a awesome street killer! take care and go after some brand xs.

Find me a 1996 ford Eddie Bauer front bumper flood and dash mats

Me too

Hope you didn't pay much for that one

Fantástico modelo muy buen ecponente de esa epoca maravillosa

I put a 327 in my 78 camaro. Large journal version

I ran the block number on the internet search engine 3959512. '62-'63 327 2 bolt. The front engine serial boss numbers & letters are difficult to decipher.

Mother had a 64' and she loved it and I wish I could be able showed it to her! My Dad stole it forged the title and destroyed it. Had a 327 and a turbo 350 and she ran. White interior and red body.

Very Good, T/Y!

Nice to see a video on an old holsclaw trailer. I have one myself underneath a 1957 blue star islander. Super trailers

I have done the tour Nebraska twice now and it was a blast both times. Love the video thanks for sharing

Could the brown wire, key on wire, be used for an electric water pump if also using with a relay ?

When I mash the gas it won't speed up 4160 holly

Thank you. Your series on rebuilding and setting the carburetor have been invaluable to me. Thanks to your videos I was able to fix my carb!

19:45 Not a '68, that's a '69 or '70 model year. 23:11 Not a Town Car, that's a Continental Mark VI model. 43:54 Not a Cadillac, that's a '58 Chevrolet.

Still got the bp 355? Sounds real good honestly just enough lope!

Imagin how hundreds of them would sound at the same time?

7+ minutes of talking for 30 seconds of what we actually came to see 🙄

Closed it to soon 😞

is that the 390 engine? if so i have the same engine and Carb, i have to spray gas directly into the carb for my car to start, i've taken it down and cleaned every part of the carb but no change, any suggestions please? it's a brand new carb but i had it sitting up unused for years, it's a restoration project

This generation of Firebird does not have an inside hood release. It’s under the front license plate area. As others have said this is a 1978 as those are Fisher style T-tops which were not used in 1977. I would agree that this is possibly a Y88 Gold SE, and if so and it’s a true force speed it’s certainly worth restoring. The only way to verify if it’s a true Y88 would be to send the VIN number to PHS and get an information packet on it.

Nice car and your car seems to drive very smooth. I am working on a similar motor and trans combo. Are you happy with the cam and driveability. What kind of vacuum are you getting at idle and will it work with power vacuum brakes?

How are you liking the cam with your combo and how is on the highway with the double overdrive? What rpm can you safely run when cruzing on the highway?

That is sweet what size rims?

Nebraskan 'hey how's it goin?' gesture is a bird.

My first car was a 65 Impala SS! Wish I still had her!😭😭😭😭😭😭

Love the video I have a Johnson 112 SPL 2 stroke where do you buy your parts it's hard for me to find them?

It's amazing how the camera speed and the engine speed synchronize to make it appear the engine blades are hardly moving.

Nothing else sounds quite like the 12 banger on a Spitfire.

Cool😁👍

I wonder how the auction went for these cars ?

LOVE IT ,I PREFER SS/T CHROME CRAGARS..THOSE RIMS KOOL ! IM AN OLD SCHOOLER.YA DIGG ✌🏾

I watched last year. And you ram hose water to engines. I thought you add antifreeze to water hose. And should take 1/2 hour.? Lol😮

Oh and I thought you had to add antifreeze to the earmuffs?? 😮you just reintroduced water to motor.?? No ?

That’s funny. ? Blue out the top!! Blue oil.!! Then you put blue gas stable.in . I’m always blue when I have to winterize 🥶 winter ❄️.

How’s that 400 working for you after two years ? I’m really thinking about putting it in my 65

Yes! Definitely videos on wiring & electrical! That’s where I have most trouble! Currently I need to replace the ignition switch in the 1973 Winnebago Brave (Dodge RM-300 chassis), & not only do I need to find a replacement, but I also still need to get it out of the steering wheel column housing that’s in 3 sections, but I can’t figure out how to get the bottom section to lower down so I can access it! I’ve taken it apart so many times & then have to put it back together so I can tow it for street cleaning, so it’s a hassle. I’m figuring for now I’ll rebuild the carburetor, & maybe I can learn how to just Hotwire it, & do that until I can get the ignition switch & figure out how to fix it! LOL I’m an amateur, so it just takes me a lot longer to figure everything out, that’s why I love the educational “how to” videos for literally almost everything out there. I can’t afford to hire anyone, & in this city it’s best to just DIY, because most people don’t seem to know what they’re doing either, but the difference is, “if you want something done right, you need to do it yourself”, as the saying always goes! LOL Thanks!

I try to use a see through plastic bag or containers to take apart things with springs, that way it’ll fly into the bag instead! Of course, if I don’t know if something is going to fly out in the first place, it’s hard to predict, so sometimes just using a see through plastic covering so you can see what you’re doing might save headaches of looking for flying parts! That’s my amateur tip, because I’m a complete amateur! LOL

That Coca-Cola will definitely break down any rust & impurities! At least the mid-1900’s Coca-Cola, but I’m sure the same formula still applies nowadays! LOL I have to rebuild my 4150 manual choke Holley, but I’ve never done one before, hence I’m studying & researching before I wrench!

This is the best Holley how to video I've seen
