From your question about valve shimming, I take it you don't have a Haynes manual. Strongly recommend you get one, it will answer lots of basic questions.
The carbys use a screw-and-locknut valve adjustment system. How to do it will be in the Haynes manual.Last edited by TominMO; 09-06-2013, 02:15 PM.90 Festy (Larry)--B6M (Matt D. modified B6 head), header, 5-speed, Capri XR2 front brakes, many other little mods

I thought you couldn't put a carby intake on an EFI head? Am I mistaken?90 Festy (Larry)--B6M (Matt D. modified B6 head), header, 5-speed, Capri XR2 front brakes, many other little mods

yes you can put a carb intake on a EFI head (they're the same casting, as well as the 1G 323).Trees aren't kind to me...
currently: 2 88Ls (Scrappy and Jersey), 88LX, 90L(Pepe), 91L, 91GL (Skippy) 93 GL Sport (the Mighty Favakk), 94 (Bruce) & 95 Aspire SEs, 97 Aspire (The Joker),
94 Justy 4WD, 87 Fiero GT, plus 2 parts cars. That's my fleet.

do the lifters go bad often and would that make my slight rough idleComment

figured out my new used jasper motor has 90,120,150,185 compression I think that's my rough idle lol sucks but think im going b6 this timeComment

Yep, there's your sign! You'll like a B6 better anyway. It's more funner.Originally posted by 1chrisapple View Post
Lifters don't go bad that often, and I'm not sure they would cause a rough idle issue.Last edited by TominMO; 09-07-2013, 05:38 PM.90 Festy (Larry)--B6M (Matt D. modified B6 head), header, 5-speed, Capri XR2 front brakes, many other little mods
