1976 FJ40 Holley Carb, Offenhauser Intake Question

[rex in bama]

Hello from Germany,

Would you possibly sell the Offenhauser intake manifold?

Best regards,

Jürgen

Apologies, but sold it to someone here a while back

Oh, that's a shame, but thanks anyway...

Hey all, I'm slowly chipping away at repairing this 1976 and now I'm having issues with the accelerator cable sticking on the Holley carb where it turns 90-degrees toward the firewall. I'm wondering if I should keep the current Holley/Offenhauser setup given my issues with it seem to continue mounting. I can't find a new cable anywhere, the truck runs rich no matter what adjustments we've made on it and after being rejetted. Any general words of wisdom or direction?

Go to Summit Racing/Speedway/Legs or any other performance warehouse and purchase their version of Lokar cable and brackets. Easy to find a combo that works.

What size and model Holley? I have used both 465 and 390 cfm Holley four barrels. Check to ensure you have the right power valve and jets. I also put "whistles" on these carbs along with off road needles. Single piece vent with multiple holes on top edge also ensures it doesn't flood out.
