    455 overheating issues at intake , not the block

    Did you install a serpentine belt system? If so make sure the water pump is rotating in the proper direction. The motor is getting hotter than 230 imo. Sounds to me there is no coolant flow. I would be looking at the pump. Start with the simple things first. Don't just dive into the motor and...

    !@#$%^ &*()?!

    If the transmission is not slipping and the fluid is not burnt I doubt the clutches are slipping. From the sounds of what yer describing, it being sluggish pulling away and at low speeds would lead me to believe the one way stator clutch is not holding. When this happens the stator turns in both...

    Holley spreadbore problem.

    With fuel only coming out of one booster, that would lead me to believe when u rebuilt it, u didnt use the proper metering block gasket. The gaskets have to match the ones coming off. Best thing to do is go on the holly site there is a tec page with the carb listing numbers. It gives all the...

    Adjust gas pedal (Solved)

    Its a vacuum secondary carb. The only throttle blades that are gonna be fully open are the primary throttle plates. The secondary's will slightly open when the pedal is on the rug with key off engine off.

    Fuel pump question

    AC Delco. They recommend packing it with grease because the spring doesn't get adequate oil for lubrication. Moisture build up in the pump and causes premature pump failure. It usually takes out the spring.
