So I was just motoring along at the Lost in the 50s cruise at Emmett when I picked up two hitchhikers from out of town.who looked hot and lost!!
Glad you yelled from the crowd when I went by... So I had the pleasure of motoring around with Mr and Mrs Daverod at the best cruise in Idaho! We found a few other local forum members to chat with or wave out the window while they cruised by ..... At least 15- 20 other 60-66 trucks represented our style well!! They close the state highway through town for over a mile and only allow the classics to cruise on a hot Saturday night . They hoped to break the 1000 car count this year and I think they might have just made it Attachment 959867 Attachment 959868 |

Re: Daverods project 66
Yo Dave. random question for you... did you have to change main jets on the Holley 390CFM carb on the 292?? - I think they come with low 50's main jets for primary side.
Hoping you remember back that far and what jets you finally ended up with?? I just picked up a 390 CFM Holley at a swap meet for the new 283 but it has 72s installed in the primary side . I am thinking that may be a bit rich. Just wondering what to start with . Dang jetting kits are expensive and most do not start with the low numbered jets anyway.. Bubba |
Re: Daverods project 66
That was many cells ago,but it seems to me that I did rejet it two sizes. You can buy the single jets one ebay.
|
Re: Daverods project 66
two sizes up or down??? your elevation is a little higher but not enough to be a big deal.. I just wanted an idea where to start before I order a bunch of jets I will probably never need again,
I know the 72s are way too big to start with on the primary side, 64s on the secondary side |
Re: Daverods project 66
Stock primarys are 122-50 .049 secondary 134-39. Holley has a good site that tells how to tune them.

Re: Daverods project 66
I was just thinking about how good looking the Victorys are. I'm thinking I should have a bike by Aug. I was looking at a Roadglide or a streetglide. I like the looks of the streetglide. I'm thinking about just heading south for the winter. Hit the boarder get some new teeth. haha, Went for a bike ride today on my rm 250. First time in 2 years it felt good.

Re: Daverods project 66
My 64 keeps killing the battery. I must have a short or something. How should I go about trying to find short? I've charged the batt 3 times. Every time about a week later the batt. is dead. Its just sitting for the week. I wonder if the gas gage would kill it that fast if the ignation switch wasn't turning off?

Re: Daverods project 66
not to bash on harley in general but just about any foreighn bike will be more reliable than a harley with the exeption of the realy new models
harleys are beautiful have a unique sound and a loyal following but after the sun has set the problems show up you have to retighten everything just about every 3 months or so they leak oil just about allways , parts are realy expensive compared to non harley bikes and they never did managed to get the rectifier right one good thing about harley is that parts for just about every factory model made are still available and you can make a harley any way you want it to be with over the counter parts |
Re: Daverods project 66
Victory is an American made company. Harley's do cost more to maintain, but are a much better bike than they used to be. For the money I'll keep my Roadstar for now. It's paid for. :metal:

Re: Daverods project 66
Dave is busy playing fur trapper and mountain man out in the woods.
I think we should have a lottery that pays out to the ones who get their trucks finished and drivable - |
Re: Daverods project 66
Between him and Dennis I don't think they ever will finish.
