So i got an update on my progress managed solve my major carb problem the other day. The carb had been loading up real bad and if you didnt stay in the gas it would sputter and die. So after talking to people I pulled my air cleaner and look down the venturis and found that gas was just pumping out of the bowl down the tubes and spraying out of the jets. I know the needle and seat where fine nothing in them and brand, the float set way down low. Apparently when i bought this ultra badass mech. fuel pump the pressure it produces over powers the needle and seat. So i got a pressure regulator and it seems to work pretty good.
So now I find my other problem it over heats like a bitch. Cant run it low range at all in 5 min it dies. As of now I have stock radiator that has bark leak crap in it, and mechanical fan.
So right now the plan is to fab up a radiator shroud. I got a "new" stock radiator a while ago just never installed cause the leak disappeared and got lazy. Then Im looking at pusher fans for the front of the radiators. And then i have gathered a couple of parts for a remote oil cooler and an filter.
So what has worked for everyone one else?
