LOOKING FOR HELP ON WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO TUNE AN IMPCO 425 ONTOP OF A 350. WHAT IGN SETTING SHOULD I RUN AND HOW DO I TUNE IT IN THE GARAGE WITHOUT PAYING SOMEONE. I got the 425 last year, put it on the original chevy manifold. The surprise was. My 1980 class C RV camper was driven like a young horse. No comparison to the time before it has the originaly Rochester Carb on it, with the LPG Ring and the Ventrui Valve. That was the positive. :)
At the other site, it took 10 liters more on 100 km distance. With the old installation 29 liters/100 km! With the "new" Impco 425, 39 liters/100 km. The Power Screw has now the original position 2,3 cm (0,9 inch) out from the washer. The IGN is 10 degrees before OT (upper deathpoint). The Spark plugs are new and i took the original gaps.
If someone has an idea to get the 425 a little more economical, please feel free to tell it me. Thanks Daniel
The LPG here in Germany is at 0,73 Euro. The Price of 1 liter gasoline 1,47 Euro.
