Posted August 9, 200618 yr comment_177738 my car used to run like crap while sitting at a stop light... then after driving it awhile it would get better.. I could never figure it out.. I always thought it was heat and/or tuning... well, I finally figured it out ...my heat shield too close to the header and the vibrating heatshield actually sliced a hole in one of my primaries hahaha. and the hole was directly under my rear carb... I'd sit at a light, and slowly the rear carb would be sucking in exhaust, and run like crap!! :stupid: Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/21121-hahaha-found-the-problem/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

August 9, 200618 yr comment_177794 Yeah that would be nice, I have the monza headers that Vb Sells I just have to sand blast them and they should look good.
