Don Terrill’s Speed-Talk

Thanks guys, just wanted to get back to you and let you know the issue was resolved by something very simple and that was the regulator had a vacuum signal port that had been blocked with a vacuum cover – as I thought it was for many years. Once removed to allow the diaphragm to move freely enough t...

PE Wideband O2 Controller Kit - gas or E 85?

Hey Everybody, My old reliable Mallory ( OLD Version ) #5250 Comp 250 pump and Mallory Return Style 4300 regulator has worked very well for years.

Hey Guys - I have a 455 Pontiac with E heads and 12.5 - 13 to 1 and E85. I have MSD 6AL, Billet Dist, Blaser 2 coil and Firecore wires with NGK's #7 gapped .028 to .030 - Ignition locked with rotor phasing adjusted.

What is a good GAP for this Plug Set up?
Thanks, Again, Craig

Hey Guys, Also, What happens is that it floods easily on cold start - so I am careful not to pump too much but will experiment with more fuel and waiting the 15 seconds ideas.
I think that they are - all good ideas

A good question: What is a good gap for E85 and the NGK's #7?
Thanks Again, Craig

Hey Guys - all responses are good and yes - I have the start retard, a little gas squirt, mechanical advance locked with the rotor properly phased. Do you think that the MSD E coil would be better over the blaster 2 or the plugs needing more gap - bigger box, adequate for my motor - 650 - 675 HP? Th...

Issue is hard to start when cold less than 75 with no heat in the motor and I wo...

Hey Everybody,
What metering block gaskets (Holley Blue gaskets?) are people using with E 85 and a 4500 Holley?
Thanks Again, Craig

Hey Everybody,
Have people found that the rotor phasing on an MSD Billet dist. was good when the mechanical advance was locked out?
Thanks Again, Craig

Hi guys,
Thanks for the input - I should have said that this is a drag race street - strip under hood with an air filter motor.
All input is welcome.
