    I’d be interested to see how that goes, it’s quite surprising how much carb these little things can take. When I was shopping around for a carb for mine the consensus was the usual 600cfm vac sec, but it never really ran right. Thinking it was too big went down to a quick fuel 450 dp and it was better in the idle to mid range and then went flat. Took a gamble on a new Quick fuel 650dp and basically straight out of the box it was mint. Tuned it using the wide band afr and it starts easy, revs crisp as hell and has steady afr right up to 6500.

    Might have to apply some heat to it. I’m sure we pressed the steel gear on to the dizzy for mine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Just get another dizzy, then swap the gear over. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What’s the diameter of the shaft that goes into the hole for the oil pump drive? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    If you are using the original cam then take the gear of the AU piece and put on another dizzy. Just make sure the shaft size is the same. The steel gears use to be about $40, that was 10 years ago for me. I used Mallory steel gear and a Mallory dizzy and the roll pin had to be re drilled to suit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Any 302w dizzy will fit, a steel gear is recommended, just make sure the hex drive is the right size as that is what can vary. Don’t be a cheap ass and get procomp... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I like that it looks like it has just come out of an XW or similar with the blue and chrome. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I’d use those heads on an older 302w from an E series as a cheap mod. I don’t know what they flow tho. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    He also sells no name brand alloy heads complete for around $1100 - 1200. Or he use too if we are thinking of the same guy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    No it’s only for Alt. Got it off eBay from memory through a hot rod shop. They had crank pulleys that could run three belts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yes still have the pulleys, I got the correct spacer but have kept the gilmour styled belt as it runs mint and doesn’t jump off, once it was aligned properly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    This is a photo from a few years ago when I thought about swapping to a V belt set up and realised that the pulleys didn’t line up. You can see how I manipulated the Cleveland hose into the angled water neck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yeah, got it from supercheap, there’s a reason I couldn’t use the vertical outlet and from memory it was due to the timing cover so used an older angled style. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I used the neck with the angle, then the factory Cleveland top hose fits. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Should be no issue at all, unless you run roller rockers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    That’s an old school timing cover and a modern seal? Might have to get an old school seal?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Just thinking what I did with intake gaskets, but remembered that the alloy heads came with them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I like the lifters and special lifter bores that are machined in and the cam needle roller bearings. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    When my block was measured before being 0 decked it was like .005 at one end and .022 the other and the opposite on the other bank. Factory machining wasn’t flash at all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
