Great video. One of the best explanations about carb heat soak issues! Beautiful engine by the way.

I appreciate all the feedback. I was frustrated on how to solve it. I read everything about edelbrock carburetors and its just a hot gas issue. It's the easiest way to try to fix it if you having issues with it not running right. Before you do all the springs in the timing and all this other stuff just try a thicker gasket and insulate the fuel lines work for me runs great now.

nice, you answered my one question about the new screws. Thanks

I have battled this same problem and used the carb spacer which does help but one thing that helps a ton is to run a fuel filter after the fuel pump but before it goes into the car with a return line because whatever fuel isnt drawn into the carb can exit out to the return line and go cool down in the tank instead of sitting there on top of the engine heat.

Love the sound effects! Exactly how I would present a video.

This exactly what my car sound like lol. I'm trying to fix this now.

"By then you look like an idiot because your car sounds like crap".....damn that made me laugh because so true

Cool Cans work wonders too, Back in the day we just made our own now you can buy fancy ones, which you would want with an engine bay this nice. I used dry ice or crushed ice until I got creative and used a paste I got at a bearing supply wearhouse used for wielding, it doesn't allow Any heat transfer and it kept the fuel cold, Wooden cloths pins work great too on the metal lines...this literally stopped the fuel from vaporizing on a hot summer day in my barracuda.

beautiful engine setup

Same issue on my 82. Runs greats just gets heat soaked or vapour locked after sitting shut off for a few min. Looking like a goof at the gas station. Thinking ill get a pressure regulator. That wrap and a carb spacer for my afb. Great video car looks clean under the hood!

Hey, those thick gaskets work great! Quadrajet carbs have these as standard equipment. Never experienced this with my QJ. However, I am a big fan of Edelbrock’s AFB carb as well. I have used both these types with great success. Good job!

awesome engine,i live in a hot and humidity place,and solve the problem whit a good 4 row radiator, i see you have a nice radiator, aniway good luck

The AVS 2 is suppose to have a throttle response similar to efi so hopefully you are all set now with the cooler fuel.

You won't "drop anything down that hole" if you have some clean rags in them. As a mechanic for more than 25 years I have removed MANY carburetors for rebuilding or sometimes replacement and I ALWAYS put a rag over the hole or put some clean rags in the manifold to keep out foreign objects. It is also a good practice to get into. Thanks for the video. It would have been great to have a video while driving the car before and after. I am thinking about putting an Edelbrock AVS2 on my '68 Olds Cutlass but I really love the Quadrajet. Take care.

You're right it is good idea or good practice to put a dry rag clean rag in the carburetor manifold hole if you plan on leaving it unattended for a while or why you're screwing in the studs. That's why I recommend clamping the studs under the vice grips first so you don't drop them into the intake manifold. The car was hesitating it wouldn't take off right away when I floored it it would hesitate bad and just like my noises it would sound like that. And now it doesn't do any of that stuff

Hey David, I have a love affair with QJ Carbs. Not the electronic variety. I am an old hot Rodder. No, not that old. The thing about QJ’s is that they can frustrate people because getting them perfect takes a lot of know how. That is because the QJ has way more parts count than others. The parts must work in concert. This also makes the QJ the most tunable carberator ever created. It can deliver excellent mileage and raw performance. My Father had a 67 SS Camarao 327@350hp with the QJ. A real good runner. I have a 69 Camaro 327@ 400 hp 4:10 gears, 3,000 rpm converter. Let me tells ya. I have used both carb types. I prefer QJ because I get better throttle response. Of course that wonderful roar is just that. I live em. Thanks David Collins for expert advise.

@@roygustafson7729 hey Roy, the biggest hidden issues with the phenolic spacers is that they do not allow heat to make it’s way to the carb base plate. They are literally a heat insulator. Where Aluminum is a heat conductor. I would bet your carb runs 30 degrees cooler with phenolic spacers.

Just a typical chevy running hot every way it can.

Regular gaskets above and below so you don't have to peen those corner fittings

E10 gas has lower boiling point, then nonethonal gas. Which can led to fuel boiling in the fuel bowels and or vapor being pushed through the jets into the intake which will reform to a liquid, then flood the engine. This is most noticeable during hot starts which will resulting a hard hot start. I fought this for a nit till realized this. I changed my fuel to nonethonal problem corrected

Are you sure it's not the exhaust heat cross over contributing to this - if not blocked off? Aluminium conducts heat at 4 times the rate as cast iron.

You have your fuel line set up like a marine engine I would set it up too left (passenger side) may help additionally if you have the clearance and just cap off what you're using now

What if there was a way to move where the fuel lines where sitting? Maybe move them to sit away from the alternator or maybe have them set on over the valve cover instead of all that insulation? Could that work maybe?

You could route the fuel lines in different areas but the fact is there's a lot of heat under the hood of a car so if you can insulate your fuel lines I believe that it helps keep the fuel a little bit cooler I've never tested it or measure the temperature I just mentally I just think it works

I'm doing the same thing to mine I have the same issue on my 383

Hey Roger, why don’t you see if you can find one of those thick carb mounting gaskets, or a phenolic spacer. Sounds like you need a heat insulator. A phenolic spacer would lower your carb temp by 30 degrees while aluminum will increase carb temp enough to boil gas in the float bowels. 🤔

So this is why every used intake i come across has crossed threads. Just screw those in my hand, no need for the vice grips.

I have a Edlebrock adapter on my intake already would I still need this gasket
