speaker kickpanel / carb questions

[1972cutlass]

Does anyone know were i can buy the 2 kick panels that are below the dash that are already molded for speakers. And im adjusting my edelbrock carb its runing a little rich. Theres 2 dials to adjust to get the air fuel ratio, but i dont remeber if the one on the left is air and on the right is fuel mix or the opposite? Ive adjusted a quadrajet carb but are haveing a little trouble with this edelbrock carb.

Both of the screws are air/fuel adjustments. With the car running, you want to slowly screw in the screw clockwise until the car starts to bog out and then unscrew almost a half turn. Then do it to the other side. Personally, I am starting to think that the Edelbrock carbs are junk but I'm stuck with mine for now.

Keep in mind those screws only adjust idle a/f ratio.

Check Mike's Montes for the Kick plates..........and if I was you, scrap that eddy-junk carb and get a holley........Eddy has a bead on everyone else as far as intakes, heads -----not carbs.JMO though 😀

I agree. I can't wait to get rid of mine!

You can get kick panels from Q-Logic. You "might" have to bend your e-brake pedal inward & you'd "need" to relocate the PC in the pass side kick panel.

Yup, and here's an ebay link you can get them with Rockford P3 speakers in them (try not to look at the price, it hurts the eyes!):

q-logic kick panels are sweet! I'd get them and your choice of speaker... as far as the carb you got all the info I was going to give you from everybody else.. I'd toss the edelbrock for a Holley or a Demon.. I had a big Demon on the 425 Olds in my truck and I loved it..

About the kick panel speaker pods... they do look good, but the only problem I find with them is, well they're installed in KICK panels. And every speaker I've seen in a custom kickpanel have scuff marks from people accidentally kicking them. I'd hate to have a nice, new mint kickpanel with new speakers in it and get it scuffed and scratched up. Either that or telling my passengers not to kick the speakers all the time, or constantly be on edge wondering if it was kicked... not for me lol... just saying.
