hey. all went well (except for rear end height which i have to redo). the exhaust is great like this. relatively quiet most of the time. tooling around through neighborhoods and such you can hear the carbs way over the exhaust. then when you go WOT it REALLY wakes up. glad i went that direction.

hesitation issue was clogged mains. happened again the other night. easy fix though.

What is clogging them. Is it a rusty fuel tank problem or water in the gas. Maybe you should get a high filtration fuel filter.

i am sure it is just trash in the line. the car sat for 10 years. tanks was cleaned out, but i'm sure there was stuff in the lines. dave and smiff went through the same thing. i was thinking of adding one of the cheapy filter (cause i have one) inline before the carb temporarily to see if it will help. not a major issue though. just have a screwdriver and can of air with you and no problems.

I'm told that it is common to go thru a couple of clogs with a rebiult set of dells if they sat for any legth of time. Too many places that you can't get to when they are cleaned. My car didn't sit before I put this engine in but I had 3 clogs so far, Kevin had 3-4 clogs in the begining and Joe (Yetibone) went thru a few with Sue's car too. I have a filter before the CB fuel pump and just before the engine. It's not to hard to clear them, just drive it and get thru the "clean out period".
