Tinkered with the Carb a little, replaced a bunch of vac lines and added a 1in spacer between the Carb. Now there's no more than an inch between the Carb and hood. Looks like ill be getting a new hood soon.

Shaun it sounds like you are having a lot of fun.

Gary, so did anything change under the hood ?

SS Shaun 11-20-2011 07:45 PM

so i started taking it apart but i said let me do all my measuring first
http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n...e/IMG_6393.jpg
it was reading the back lash of .14
got my new posi in
http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n...e/IMG_6394.jpg
measured in at .13 which is great! but my problem was i cant get the pinion bearing off to shim the bearing up more because its not giving me what i want to see on the gear marking. so i ordered some tools i hope to get it so next weekend i can do it over the small mini vacation i have :).
also i went to get my swap for the chevelle
lqx motor not sure which one i have tho lq9 or lq4 yet i will search to figure it out
