Once again, do I need port or manfold vacume for the dizzy?
Port or manfold vacume? some one please.jones 01-11-2006, 12:46 PM Once again, do I need port or manfold vacume for the dizzy? chilly 01-11-2006, 01:13 PM It really depends on the application...try both and see what the motor likes. If you have a lot of cam or run a stick, many times the manifold vacuum can be used to get a little better idle. jones 01-11-2006, 01:17 PM It's just a stock 460 in my f150. The carb has all the other ports sealed. Just like to know before having to take the carb off and dig the silicon out of the ports. jones 01-11-2006, 01:19 PM I'm going to take pictures tonight so I can post tomorow. chilly 01-11-2006, 01:20 PM I believe most stock applications use ported vacuum... mcsteinberg 01-11-2006, 02:48 PM You'll get a better signal from port vacuum. Some people use the manifold vacuum port, to try and run a distrbutor vacuum advance. I don't know why. The port vacuum, is designed for the advance mechanism. IMO jones 01-11-2006, 04:24 PM Am I correct to say that port vacume increase as rpm rises and manfold decreases as rpm rise? rmcomprandy 01-11-2006, 06:46 PM Ported vaccuum signal wil rise from "0" to the same as manifold vaccuum at about 15 degrees of throttle opening. It will mimick manifold vaccuum from there on up. VENTURI vaccuum will rise as air speed becomes greater reguardless of manifold vaccuum. jones 02-18-2006, 10:25 PM Bump,,, I was looking for this info so I could check my setup. |
