if you can "feel" the outer carbs come in then they are coming in too late, the transition should be seamless

they make different springs for secondaries.i run what my car came with from factory. around 65 mph running a 4:10 rear i notice the six bbl starting to kick in.change your springs. this has nothing to do with fuel line size.

I have a few six-pack 4.10 cars - 4-Speed and Auto. If your end carbs are starting to come in at 65 MPH your springs are way lighter than the stockers....or you are really running 4.88's   ;D

sounds like a vaccum advance problem to me.try unhooking the vaccum advance hose and plugging it. then go out and drive it and see if it still does it. thats why i dont run a vaccum advance on any of my cars.


:iagree: Disconnect it and go for a spin to see what happens.  ;)

If the brake booster has a vacuum leak that can also be an issue as well.  :Twocents:

I think that was may have been it Ron. I pulled the vacuum line like you said and ran it down to snohomish for a spin today and with the vac advanced unplugged it seemed to eleviate the surging. and when I plugged it back in and ran it home I started noticing it again.

Wonder why it didn't do it before the six pack conversion? It's the same distributed.  :shruggy:
