Re: 1964 GMC "crustine" semi-build.
Well Crustine's 600 eddy is really hating this hot weather. Engine has been running a little above norm, but that's to be expected in 110 degree weather. Right now there's a huge flat spot off idle and the carb is starting to load the engine up and nasal leak like mad. SO, between a jet down kit and a carb rebuild kit I was at half the cost of a 500 cfm 1404 so I bit the bullet and decided to down grade. Been wanting to go smaller as I like the size of the primaries much better on the 500. The new carb should be here on Thursday and I'll finally be installing a pressure regulator. That was part of my problem is to much fuel pump pressure. Should see a bit more gas mileage and less nasal leakage now. Also gonna replace fuel filters and check the lines. Will update on the progress.
