So I have the new engine for Alexi, but there are several small problems and I think they are all carb related. The guy "rebuilt" the carb as part of our deal on the car, but I am thinking he rushed it and did a shitty job.
One problem is that whenever I hit a hill it just starts going slower and slower and doesn't shift correctly to get more power. It acts almost exactly like when you say take a corner in a stick shift but put it into third or fourth when you really should be in second gear, if that makes sense.
I also noticed that downshifting around 35-45 doesn't yield any power increase at all in acceloration.
Any suggestions?
I may just go buy an Edlebrock tomorrow and fuck the stock carb. On that note, what type of aftermarket Edlebrock would be best? Looking over my options here, especially between electronic and regular chokes...
