viven44 Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 (edited) Any fuel filter I can see on RockAuto (link below) for a 460 has a micron rating >30um so I would be more worried about going <30um... Rather not clog up a filter with too fine a rating and risk running lean for a while.... but you have an AFR gauge right ?

viven44 Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 Nice, you can do a lot of stuff as long as the AFR is good I'm running blind with no idea on my trucks so the considerations are different... I'm going off what I can smell, ear, or see 👀 🙃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbz28 Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago I know this is a bit of a stale thread, but i just wanted to throw my carb knowledge out there. My bro in law has the summit carb on his camaro, and it works fine, he don't drive it a lot so i can't really say anything to its daily "driveability" but it did make his car run a lot better than the old worn out holley he had on it. That stated, i saw some chatter about the summit being a clone of the 4100...its not, it shares some of the design features, like the top plate, no gaskets below the fuel level, everything else is basically a holley 4010 (again, may have been inspired by the 4100). 4100 has an internal vaccum secondary, has different accelerator pump configuration, dual fuel inlets, center hung vs side hung floats, externally adjustable floats... you can't take a single part off the summit carb and put it on an Autolite 4100. I think the ONLY thing they truly share is booster design. So, its not a clone, just want folks to know that before they go buy one, its more accurate to call it a holley 4010 clone. IN my opinion the 4100 is a better carb, its simpler and just plain works. Here is a holley 4010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot remember Ron's flying toilet, my cousin had one on his 69 camaro chassis car. It was a mechanical fuel injection system, used "pills" to change the fuel flow rate, the Toilet bowl part was just a single giant butterfly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
