Hi all,
i need to relace the badly pitted chrome airfilter housing on my weber 500/edelbrock performer equipped 3500S. I'm considering an edelbrock 1207 or 1208, and was woundering what other members have fitted. BTW I do not have a 90deg banjo fitted to the fuel inlet at the moment, a braided hose enters the carb at right angles to the clyinder heads, should this be changed? The current filteris approx 2" high and 12" diameter, make unknown. I'm also having continuing issues with starting the car after a lay up. If left for more than a few days it is impossible to start. I posted this a few months ago and tried the starting procedure suggested but with no luck. I flattened 2 batteries at the weekend cranking, with only a few coughs. The last time i started it i connected 2 batteries and eventually got her to fire after pumping in lots of fuel with the throttle. Does it need a rebuild? Where can i get a kit?
Regards,
Dave
