16 December 2018 - refurb'd 1405
While checking the floats, gaskets, linkages and stuff to make sure everything is to spec. I noticed that the front and rear jets were marked up. I attempted to remove them and replace them with new jets. I was able to remove just one jet with just a screw driver. The other three could not be removed that way. So I attempted to drill/tap the jets to remove them. I was able to do one jet successfully but the other too I went too wide on the drill point or too deep. Now that carb is a POS thanks to my lack of skillz. As soon as I can I will just take the hit, and buy a brand spank'n new Edelbrock 1405. In the mean time I'll keep using the holley.
