Heater-Air Conditioning Vacuum Power Unit 1963 Coupe deVille
I am not having issues with with my vacuum unit but have been looking at what it would take to replace it if became necessary. Can the 2 nuts that hold it to the rear plenum be reached from the inside without removing the plenum? The rear plenum is very close to the firewall and it appears that space is quite limited to access the nuts on the backside of the plenum.

I did mine working from inside with the glove box liner removed. Posted here https://6364cadillac.ning.com/forum/topics/recirculation-actuator-r...

The vacuum unit you are showing has already been replaced. The unit I am speaking about controls the flow of air between the floor/ac ducts. It is mounted inside the rear half of the heat/ac assembly and the retaining nuts are facing the firewall.

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Hey guys,
I have installed the same Edelbrock carb and have done everything the same as Jason’s carb and intake project. In the spring and summer months the car starts, runs and idles great!

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like
While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
