      KWA replied to the thread Holley Carb. Gurus (1 autolite).
      Google says for 1F engine. Autolite 2100 1.08 has 287 cfm and would be the best fit. Holley 7448 350 cfm next Holley 8000 350 or 500 cfm Holley 4412 500 cfm. Jets could be to big and causing boggin down in 3rd.

      Sounds like you got it figured out. Thanks.

      I’ll check out the tuning book. Thanks

      Any thoughts on keeping the 4412 or using the other ones? I can’t even remember how I got all of them. I’ll probably keep the 4412 on there since that’s what came with it just curious.

      Fj40 1974. My holley 4412 bogs in 3rd. I think it’s the accelerator pump. Probably need to rebuild. I have an extra one that also needs to be rebuilt. I have 3 Holley (7448, 4412-3, 8000, and a autolite. Just curious if one is better than the...

      No, the problem is the there is the Hex, then a groove for the C clip then another Hex, then the groove for the U clip. One brake line had a hex pattern. One brake line was like an oval with the ends flat. The picture below I cut and ground...

      I tried to look online for a deeper female fitting with just one groove but couldn't find one stock with 2 female sides. Not sure on the origin of these types of fittings. But I think this might be the only option because with out the 2 grooves...

      Picture below shows the eliminator bracket hole drilled bigger with the opening to keep the hard line and soft line connected if needed. I did not grind the female fitting on this side but in hind side I should have ground it down and then I...

      That would work. New problem I have is the tab on the axle has the same problem. I might have to grind down the middle lip to make it fit like you did. In hind sight that might have worked better on the eliminator bracket. Grinding down the...

      I marked it and used a drill stepper bit to go one step bigger. The Dremel wasn't really working as good. Then I did a camo cut on the knuckle side about about a 1/2 inch wide. Basically leaving an opening to slide the hard line and soft line...

      I will dremel as suggested and see how that works. If that doesn't work I may have to get a rubber brake line that goes straight to the caliper and zip tie it to the LROR bracket

      COF recommends opening up the hole with a dremel to fit the fitting deeper into the bracket.

      Sorry to hear that. I have fj60 knuckles and rotors and I'm going to try to use 1995ish 4 runner calipers. I had to get 1/4 inch spacer for the rims to not rub on the caliper. Will see if they work before I grind the calipers. My rotors don't...

      Picture above: Old hose on left no middle lip sits further into the metal bracket but too short and has a male and female fitting. Need female and female fitting. Picture above: The fitting is too short. Trying to sit the middle groove on one...

      I'm assuming this is how it is suppose to work? (U clip is upside down) The metal is too think for the U clip to fit or the metal female fitting it too short. Options: 1. Grind down the metal 2. Cut the middle lip flush with the female fitting...

      I know this is an old post but . . . 1974 Fj40 putting on the backing plate eliminator kit from Cruiser Out fitters. I maybe missing something but the eliminator backing plate metal is to thick for the rubber brake hose line to engage the U...
