Need help with my first 350 v8
So I have a 350 with a 350 automatic trans.
I am not sure what year it is. The alternator is on the passenger side and has that big alternator bracket/ shield. Anyways I just got started. I tuned up the Hei distributor, and rebuild the 4 barrel Holley carburetor. So once I fired it up, the valves sounded extremely flattery. I popped open the valve cover and the valves were sloppy as hell. So I just adjust them, now it runs decent. It doesn’t smoke, idles on it’s on fine. But I noticed the 350 shakes a lot. I am not sure if it has a mild cam or not? Also what timing do you guys think is the best degree and the right idle speed? |
