With 3.23s at the dragstrip a 3 speed was nearly a second quicker then the same car with a 833 4 speed. It was in a 70 challenger with a grocery getter 360. 4 speed was 15.4, 3 speed was a 14.6. The three speeds 3.09 low got the car out of the hole better. Even though the 3 speed was quicker at...
From what I remember our 72 satellite was 3650 with a small block, headers/ 4 barrel iron intake, 904 and a 8 3/4 w buckets and a console with working air conditioning. Weighed at a scale.
Our 69 charger with 4 core copper radiator iron headed 510 rb, M1 intake, 3" exhaust to the rear bumper and...
Our 72 cars have the saginaw. It is a improvement in terms of feel and a more common pump. But, if your after a original look..the saginaw looks different.
That link is for a larger TRW. Easy way to tell is the hex hole in the shaft. The big TRW front bracket will bolt on your smaller pump but the back mount has to be modified to work. Which is what I did on one car. But the saginaw is different. Trw I have seen called Thompson.
I believe those fit a Saginaw? All the pump brackets from 440 source i have seen are saginaw only. Not going to fit a trw. I'd rather have a Saginaw, they have better steering feel when I have used them.
The big and small trw pumps have different brackets. Guessing these are for the larger pump...
Edelbrock AVS2 or a Holley Street Demon could work for a replacement. Street demon has a similiar look to the TQ, but is not a thermoquad. Thermoquad is a excellent carb dialed in. Time you do the linkage and choke changes you may have the TQ figured out. Here is a link to a TQ to Street demon...
Sounds like that battery needs replacing, just as well replace it and then you can rule that out.
Unusual car and very neat that you are the original owner. Would love to see pictures of it. How many miles do you have on the car?
Is there much wear on the throttle shaft on the primaries? A loose throttle shaft can cause some irregularity when trying to make fine adjustments. Some wear may explain why the linkage changed even though you did not touch it.
There are two TRW pumps. I think what you have is called the small TRW pump used in the mid 60s. It's hard to see in your pictures.. but if the pump shaft is solid it's it likely has the smaller diameter housing. The large TRW has a larger housing and a hex hole in the middle of the shaft, it...
