So what did you gain by getting rid of that setup,seems a bit weird,but I spose it's over 30 years old :shock:


All I gained was clearance for the aircleaner. The linkage from this used to hit my air cleaner, so I got rid of the offending items. This was not done as a performance mod.

Take it off, plunge it and put your finger over the hole, it's only a basic Holley diaphram, pretty easy to get another if it's stuffed.
