Default Fcr taffy mod, my style, w/pics

I never really liked the idea of the collar for the taffy mod(yes I know its still on there in some of the pics) so I made an adjustable screw setup so I know exactly how much it is moved while making an adjustment. On with the pics:

Interesting. If I'm looking at this correctly, you made an adjustable stop that the black arm/lever stops against?

very sexy. I like.

I've seen a similar screw style adjuster that somehow attaches to the little metal bracket on the left, where the spring is fixed to.

Now all you need to do is make a run of em and sell them here. I'll take one

I had thought about doing it that way, it would have been alot easier. The only problem I see about limiting the squirt from the metal bracket is you are going to push the on black lever with the AP rod up and out of the AP diaphram. It will limit the amount of fuel the AP is putting out but, you don't get the squirt untill the throttle has opened up quite a bit. By limiting the squirt on the arm going down you get the fuel squirtas soon as the throttle is hit.

Eric, yes you are looking at the screw with the spring on it, I also made the piece that the screw goes into. It is a stop that limits the amount of fuel the accelerator pump puts out.If you look at the third pic you will see a shaft collar on the AP rod. The collar does thesame thing as my setup but with mine you know exactly how much you moved it when making an adjustment. Newer FCR carbs do the the same thing with limiting the AP squirt with a leak jet. It basicaly routes fuel through the path of least resistance.Make a change in the leak jet and more fuel either goesto the AP nozzle or back to the carb.

That looks sharp 2k




Any chance you would make another bracket like that, I can drill and tap for the screw mount and drill the other two mounts? If not dimensions would do.

I might have a lobster tail or two sittin in the freezer.
