I'm a bit late to the party here, but I ran the same carb on my mild 351c (302 2v heads) with a eldelbrock performer manifold & spread bore adapter. After messing around with the wideband gauge and some street tuning it ran really good. After a number of different squirter trials, I ended up increased the primary squirters from 25's up to 31's and the secondary squiters from 37's up to 42's. This kept the AFR readings pretty smooth when matting it from any rpm. (manual trans) The factory acc. pump cams seemed to work best for me. 30cc primary pump and 50cc secondary pump. Looking at my jet box, i lowered the primary's from 68's to 66's, and the secondaries from 76's to 75's. Although I probably may have gone back to 76's to be safe. WOT AFR was about 13:1 from memory with the 75's. I never played with the primary PV, and can't remember what vacuum it was. Secondary PV was blocked off. Different motors and all,.... but there's a reference for what seemed to work pretty good for my motor for what its worth. Edit: Just looked again at the jetting you've tried already .... Quite different,....... Take the above with a grain of salt

Yea... its pretty scary when you look at the oem size..... the stud must be a pretty good grade of steel Sent from my SM-A315G using Tapatalk

They look like the same saddles I'm using which fit fine with king springs. .... it could just be the photo angle, but it almost looks like the springs diameter is too small to suit the 'seats' in the spring saddle? As for balljoints, I'm midway through hacking with a front end using the savy motorsport wedged balljoints. There's a couple things to consider about them if you were thinking of getting them. With the 1" shelbie drop mod and the savy balljoint, this was about as much compression travel as I felt comfortable with before top and bottom balljoints became close to binding. 235/40/17 tyre for reference Sent from my SM-A315G using Tapatalk

Pretty sure the first version of the XDRIFT XD sedan with IRS used an AU IRS setup. From memory there was some good detailed pics of it back over on xfalcon.... Sent from my SM-A315G using Tapatalk

Got ya now, higher uca mount on strut tower and shorter uca to ramp camber on with bump....... you would almost have to move the uca pivot mount outwards to keep camber reasonable with the shorter arm? It would be interesting to see how the position of the roll center would change and the amount of bump steer induced? I haven't done one yet but the roll center diagrams look fairly simple to construct. Sent from my SM-G920I using Tapatalk

The 'shelby drop' wasn't intended for the purpose of lowering the car, it was intended to improve suspension geometry. I'd be doing some homework on suspension geometry before making those changes.... Sent from my SM-G920I using Tapatalk

Savy motor sport in Oz also do a 3 bold ball joint that has a 18 degree wedge built into the body of it. It would be a bolt in and go option and a lot safer/stronger than the other wedges in my opinion. Also cheaper than modifying your UCA and getting them weld inspected/ crack tested for cert if its a road car I've been trying to order a pair off them for the last few months but they can't get stock due to covid.

Stalled currently. Got as far as buying some of the components and mocking up 2/3 of the exhaust manifold. Then got sidetracked with a clevo swap into another car. Hopefully get back into this in a few months time when the clevo xe is certed and on the road. Sent from my SM-G920I using Tapatalk

Xf but its all the same Rears Fronts Shit pic but the fronts stick out further from the pillar than the backs if that makes sense. (Bigger standoff) Sent from my SM-G920I using Tapatalk

Following this. I'll be in a similar boat when i get back onto the crossy +T project.... (hopefully later this year) As far as i got was pricing up a quick fuel 650 blow thru. At around $1,400 NZD it wasnt cheap....... from what I've read so far you can modift a holley for a fraction of the price..... no idea on how a well modified carb performs compared to the quick fuel..... how easily tuned etc?

I've got two major thinks left to choose for this combo. A carb and a camshaft. After doing a bit of homework, i'm planning on modifying a holley to suit. Do we think a 650 dp holley modified for blow through would be too much for a crossy with a reasonable cam in it? One that might rev to around 5 - 5.5k instead of falling flat at 4k. Im hoping to run around15psi of boost if the rest of the setup will support that. Or should i go a tad smaller with a 450 or 600 holley? Thanks Sent from my SM-G920I using Tapatalk

About $1200NZD +GST for a Quick fuel 650cfm blow through ........ Which is not very appealing. Think I'll do some more homework on converting a double pumper before making the choice.

Anyone had any experience with Demon carbs?? I have read a handfull of reviews from around 2007-2010...most people were saying they experienced nothing but trouble with the blow through models... One would hope they have sorted out the issues in the last 10 years or so.... I can source a 650bt demon for a few hundred cheaper than a quickfuel.... However I'd rather spend the extra money to avoid the hassles if they are still known to be problematic. Thanks Sent from my SM-G920I using Tapatalk

I've comitted to the blow through setup. Have ordered a aussiespeed manifold and a programable MSD 6al. Going for a simular setup to in the above pics. Might even look at throwing a cam at it at some stage. I am currently looking at the Quickfuel 650 blow through (SS-650-BAN) and the 650 Mighty Demon blow through (5282020BT) The demon being the cheaper of the two. I still need to choose a suitable fuel pump and rising rate regular too. Sent from my SM-G920I using Tapatalk

I have had serrious thoughts about using an e series computer and j3 chip.... it is probably a more sensible option than the blow through. Also found photos from this setup off facebook from awhile back ...... from the sounds of it it went allright for what it is. I think i'll keep looking down the blow through root for now.
