Just a better quality product. Accel makes some decent stuff. Just don't expect to see much other than longevity. Scott

When you DO get it running, check the fitting on the carb that you have the PCV Valve hose hooked to for vacuum. I seem to remember that particular fitting was for venting the fuel bowl on most QuadraJets and is NOT a vacuum source.

PCV should connect to the base of the carburetor for full manifold vacuum. |
