hi everyone, car has been running good, so i havent been on here for awhile. i was wondering if anyone can explain the smog crap that was required of older cars in calif. they did this by by drilling an ell fitting into the top rear of the intake manifold with a rubber hose going to a cone shaped device located over the passenger side valve cover,thermador is inscribed on the device, with a hole drilled into the valve cover so the device can insert, then the rubber hose continues to another ell fitting drilled into the top front of the intake manifold. i thought about replacing the valve cover and running a straight tube from one ell fitting to the other to clean it up temporarily, then if i rebuild the engine, just tap out the holes and use plugs on the intake manifold.does anyone know what this setup does, and if the temp clean up would work? i have photos of this setup if you need to see it.
also was wondering if anyone has used carburetors u.s.a. in new jersey to rebuild their carb. i've had bad luck w/ rebuild kits that contain plastic parts labeled o.e.m., original equip match. this company looks to be reputable, so i'm planning on sending my carter carb to them to for rebuild. any info would be helpful
