The Royal Purple quieted it down significantly.

Hello geezer101 in post #7 you talked about a coolant block off plate. Do you know where i could order one? Or is this something i will have to make?

[SubGothius]

No need for any "coolant block off plate". You'll just need to block that coolant port in the carb mounting flange on top of the intake manifold (tap it for threads to plug it with a grub/set screw and Loctite or thread sealant) and cap-off the unused fork of the coolant tee rearward of the carb (use a short length of hose blocked with a short bolt at one end, secured with hose clamps at both ends).

I did drain the trans and fill it with RP after I heard the noise. I’ll run it for a bit and see what it does. Had another gentleman tell me he runs heavier weight oil and it helps.

Is this a genuine webber carb or do u know how to get one
