Default Ok... I'm learning...

From my last thread I made myself look like a fool... about the gear ratio. But I really am just learning about my Vett. I also have pictures up now...

Ok for my new question... I saw A while back there was a web address that said hw to tune up the quarda jets, or something like that. Can anyone enlighten me on that?

Also, Money is really not that much of a issua right now...THANKS

Frst of all...you're not a "fool" for asking dumb questions...everybody (and I mean EVERYBODY) started at zero at one point...that is why we're all here...to learn..
Second...I asked the same question several weeks ago about the red line question, got the answer and adjusted the linkage...to shift a little sooner then almost red line.
Third...in my opinion, if you watch the threads, eventually, you'll get the answer before you ask the question...a good radio operator listens more then he speaks...
Hang in here....you'll be amazed...these guys are good, and you'll do fine with that dream car...
