Classic Industries has a few. That's where I got mine.

Understood. That makes sense now. Thank you Don.

Thank you Don. I'll check it later tonight. Currently the vacuum advance is connected to the port on the manifold. The port on the carburetor is connected to the vacuum module on the transmission. It seems to run OK but when looking through the shop and assembly manuals, it shows the advance...

Thank you for the replies. I'll check out YouTube and see what I can find. To answer your question Don, the motor is rebuilt with 10.5:1 pistons and a slightly more aggressive cam than stock. The points were removed and an electronic module was installed in the distributor. It has the stock...

Sorry for this simple question but does it matter where you connect the vacuum advance vacuum hose to the 348 engine? I see some vacuum advances are connected to the carburetor fitting on the side of the carb and some are connected to a port on the intake manifold. Is one better than the other...

Hello All Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I'm out of town and haven't had a chance to check anything further since my last message. The plugs looked OK. A little dark brown to black but not too bad. Replaced them in April and only drove about 150 miles since. When I'm cruising...

Kind of feels like it’s locked. It really wants to pull when I put it in gear. Any suggestions on what kind to install and what stall speed? I’m new to this part of things.

How do we correct that or just replace it?

The car had the electronic module in it when I purchased it a few years back. The resistor and wire are gone. The two wires on the module connect directly to the coil. The car does start in neutral and it sometimes starts in gear when I make the mistake to put it in neutral. The car starts...

When the car is idling, it seems smooth and OK. When I shift in to gear, it acts like it has a miss or is on 7 cylinders. Idle is much rougher than in park. I moved the wires around and it didn't make a difference. I'm going to check and make sure my wires are OK.

I have the stock distributor and cap but I removed the points and have an electronic spark module now. I've had the distributor out last week because I had to install a new manifold gasket but it's been doing this for a while now. I installed new plug wires and plugs also over the winter...

Take your time. It's been this way for a while but I'm getting tired of it now. It's probably something simple that we're just missing. LOL

Correction. The plug wires run under the throttle linkage and over the trans linkage but they do not touch either linkage.

No wires are rubbing on the linkage, I have them running under the trans linkage.

Also, on another note, the kick down connection from the carb to the trans, how do you go about setting that? This trans will not kick down at all right now. Would I move the pin to the carb out on the threads or further in on the threads? Not sure if this has anything do with stalling??
