Monojet carb parts???

Today at 08:18:33 AM by thefarmboy21 | Views: 7 | Comments: 0

Not sure where this fits, since I can't find a carb sub-forum, so I'm guessing here....
Does anyone know where I can get, or anyone have, parts for a Monojet carburetor? Before you point me to quadrajetparts.com or similar, I need a specific hard to locate part....the lower throttle shaft (I guess it would be called) that runs through the carb and has the throttle plate disc attached with the two screws. This is what the throttle linkage etc all hooks to on the outside. My carb was so carboned up, gummed up, etc that everything was sticky coal black and the two screws for the blade broke right off as soon as I twisted the heads. If that wasn't bad enough, the screws protruded too far out the back and I had to grind them down to get the shaft out. And when I got it out the shaft is worn substantially where it pivots in the carb body. SOOO....I need that shaft or a different carb. OR if there's a way to adapt a different carb, like a 2G I'd like to know.

big backfire problem

I have a goodwrench 350 rated at 260hp with about 50k miles on it. recently I've put headers 2.5" pipes glasspacks and turndowns. was running pretty good. also have anew 1406 600cfm carb.
the other day I replaced the spark plug wires and took it for a test drive. on the test drive my truck completely died on the freeway. get towed home and we find the fuel pump had basically fallen apart. so we put the old gm one back on. one that works and we mistakenly replaced about a year ago.

now when I drive it it drives terrible. it's fine from idle up to about 2100 rpm.
if you rev it up it immediately starts backfiring extremely bad and the whole motor loses power. it sounds like a fully automatic gun of some sort. very obnoxious and not making me happy to have this happen. what could possibly cause this? I adjusted the timing and I've eliminated the charcoal canister but it was popping before that. anyways adjusted timing it's at 12' btdc give or take a degree. still popping. I gradually gassed up to 2300 rpm and it started surging and dieing. please help. this is my daily driver and I am only 19 and learning as I go. I can limp it around town to work for the upcoming days but I need to fix it as soon as possible in case I need to use the freeway. thanks everybody

Longbed stepside?

March 10, 2014, 10:13:49 PM by quinntheeskimo | Views: 26 | Comments: 1

I have longbed with a fleetside bed currently on it. If I were to find a longbed stepside, would it bolt right down? And does anyone know where I could find one?

March 10, 2014, 08:45:31 PM by quinntheeskimo | Views: 23 | Comments: 1

I was planning on converting my 1975 C20 into a shortbed. Has anyone ever done this? And are the cuts the same? 14 inches behind the cab and 6 inches off the back?
