so there is no air screw adjustments?

Very cool !

Great, can you do a complete rebuild? Thanks

How fast does your boat go?

I had the pleasure of requiring a rebuild if a replacement vd specifically a 10-17 007. It is a 1.91 :1 reduction transmission. Although I have spent a lifetime rebuilding things as required this is the best representation one could hope for. My only comment is there will be variations to your own vd as us the case in my rebuild. Specifically I had 12 return springs for the reverse clutch and the metal disc with the three notches was required to be mounted opposite that as described in the video. This is because the 12th spring is located as to interfere with the wide part of the odd sized flange. Just a note to be aware of. No doubt has something to do with the reduction gearing or perhaps date of manufacture. Excellent presentation, thank-you!

Your post just literally solved a maddening over-charging problem in my old Ford. THANK YOU.

it's been many years since I worked on boats. What is the benefit or reason for a twin engine boat to have one engine reverse rotation? Excuse the lack of knowledge, always interested in learning. what has to be done for the starter, and the firing order on the reverse rotation engine? is the camshaft any different as well as the oil pump?

my dad taught me how to work on that engine in our 1964 Luhrs back in the early 70s when I was a child. I have a lot of fond memories from those times. I lost my dad four months ago. Unfortunately, video cameras were not around while I was learning this. thanks for the reminder of this engine and bringing back some good memories.

How much! My 502 had a catastrophic failure july 5th.

What's the recommended oil for these engines and the recommended change interval? Do they require any oil additives for the tappets and cam? Old girl sure sounds sweet!

how hard is it to just replace the shaft seal

How hard is it to build a reverse rotation "gen 1 small block chevy?" any surprises like the Chrysler rear main seal?

16:45 I appreciate you taking the time to post. I changed my coolers and having a little trouble. Thanks again

Thanks for the video, extremely helpful. One of my Crusader 454's is stumbling between 1500-3500 RPM, and the other cuts out randomly every few hours like the key was turned, then won't start again for a few minutes. Seemed like some kind of thermal issue. This is very helpful for diagnosing the coil and ignition module.

Yes this is definitely a great video. The frequent break down problems are something that could have been re engineered but left unchanged.

Hi, My 71C started making a clanking noise out of the blue. I hear it in neutral but less in forward. More in reverse. Seems to get quieter as it runs more. Can I send to a video of it? Maybe more fluid? Maybe an additive? It may need to be sent to you this winter for rebuilding.

Great informative video! Thanx! 😊

Thank you for doing such a detailed video on the marine quadrajet! I appreciate the little nuggets of info and rebuilt mine with confidence and your video. Could I use the pull off vacuum and a vacuum gauge to dial it in on the boat. As you know there are no other vacuum ports on the carb?

what is the lever on the right hand side looking at motor. ours disconnected

Really liked the video but tone the music down or get rid of it.

This video pair is a beautiful thing, my only issue is the aluminum piston is stuck, air moved it a 1/8” but no further. Should i be able to spin it in the cylinder? Can’t do that either, being aluminum i don’t want to force it. Cheers!

Have the same engine and exhaust manifolds. Water was leaking in from the exhaust manifold where the riser bolts onto the manifold, flooding the 6 and 8 cylinders. Thought it was a head gasket

Hi,nice video, I have an HS1A, any clue as to where these are vented? Mine blew out the dipstick, threads popped out,I can't find any information about the vent . Thank you

You must’ve sold a lot of transmissions

Merci beaucoup ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Excellent video, thank you. My rebuild would hav been all wrong without this and I would have been in big trouble, great job, cheers

Question: for some reason the vacuum does not release when full throttle and idles rough when vacuum is connected and bogs because it won't allow the big barrels flaps to open. Kinda weird and runs much better with the vacuum disconnected. Carb is rebuilt ,Would you know what could cause the vacuum to not release when opening up the throttle?

What is the charges

How many quarts of atf does a velvet drive 10-17-006 gear reduction hold?

now she's ready to run for another 1500 hours

Are those 6.0's 380hp each?

Can i bend the tab the way you did on a 83 Pontiac Volvo carb? I looked at the linkages and i didn't see one that looks like what you bent but then again, your hand was in the shot. Thanks in advance. This was an amazing video

Je bent echt goed groeten uit Nederland Van rob

Great video, I watched many Quadrajet KZfaq videos. I think this is the best one. Lots of great information here. Thank You!

I just noticed the input shaft has about 1/2" of rotational play and it def feels like a worn u joint. I'm half way into an already short boating season here in central Maine. Can the u joints be replaced in the boat? It seems like they're inside that bell housing but not inside the main gear set housing. Trying to figure the best way to tackle this without pulling the boat out or pulling the drive out if possible.

Don Garlits goes fishin' 😆

I have a velvet drive 10 17, 1-1 I'm rebuilding. I have a question my pinion carrier doesn't have the groves for the four snap rings ? what does this mean ? thanks

Spot on very informative 👍

Thank you!!!! so very helpful. Both modules are bad. Looks like time for HEI, since I have that laying around.

No. Sound the first 3 minutes

I'm looking to put a pair of 5.9 Cummins in my 36 Cigarette. What transmission would you use. I was going to run valvet drive. Any input?

Damn, I must have missed you taking out the idle air screws ugh! Watching now you telling me to put them back in I'm like huh.

My dad & I restored a '29 Pontiac 4 - door .. It's still driving around the old neighborhood..

In order to remove the pump do you need drain fluid.

What a beautiful sounding engine! Job well done!

fantastic tour thanks

Your Videos are the best Thanks

How do you replace it
