Got the car running and front end aligned and it's super fun to drive, but it does need some tuning.
So I've got a 670 Holley street avenger, 66 primary and 64 secondary jets, and the lightest spring I have for the vacuum secondary.
I need to double check my timing, but it's set at 34* at 3000rpm+-100 and have the vacuum advance hooked to manifold vacuum. It seems to run great with that but I can't get it to idle under 1000rpm +-100.
For those that haven't followed the build:
250 .030 over
Forged Pistons 10.25 CR
CS cam 280/280 110 1* advanced
RAU 1.6 adj rockers
CI head and intake port and polished with double valve springs
CI dual out headers
Custom curved DSII distributor
MSD ignition mod
Blaster III coil
So as of now my AF gauge jumps between 13.5-16.2 at idle. Average is like 14.7.
Cruise the gauge calms down a lot and reads between 15.6-16.7. That's cruising at 2400-2600 rpm.
I have a stumbling issue right now that I am trying to work out and get that smooth transition off idle.
The AF gauge jumps to 10.0 and leans down to 13.5 when I give her a little gas.
Anyone have an order of operation to tuning a Holley? Anyone have an idea of where I need to get my AF ratio at idle since it jumps around so much?
Now yesterday when I drove it, though it was idling at 1000rpm before hand, it idled down to 900 when I got to a stop light and the acted like it was starving and kept going down till it died. The only way I could get it to crank was to hold the gas down all the way and keep cranking it over for about 5 seconds. If I kept the Rams over 1500 I could keep it running, but once I got her to the house and parked it would run and idle with no issue. Any ideas what that issue is?
Thanks guys
