Jeff Balazs Posted January 21, 2014 Report Posted January 21, 2014 I just got a copy of this manual from VPW. There is some pretty interesting info here. It is the first book I have found that has specifics on the various Carbs. It actually lists the jets by Carter number for a DTG1 fluid drive carb. So here is a question for those of you who have been through this manual........do you reckon that this jet data is accurate and / or the same for the engines found in our trucks? or is this jetting just for stationary engines? I found it particularly interesting that the many of the stationary engines came equipped with fluid drives.....etc. For a small book it covers quite a lot of stuff. Jeff Quote
Dan Babb Posted January 21, 2014 Report Posted January 21, 2014 Didn't know such a book existed. What type of info is in there for a 1957 354 Hemi? Quote
Jeff Balazs Posted January 21, 2014 Author Report Posted January 21, 2014 Dan; It is just for the L6 engines. Sorry. Jeff Quote

Jeff am I mistaken but is what you received from VPW an original copy of theis manual? Thanks Hank Quote
Jeff Balazs Posted January 22, 2014 Author Report Posted January 22, 2014 Yes it is this manual. I wanted an analog copy as I find it easier on the old eyes. Jeff Quote
Jeff Balazs Posted January 24, 2014 Author Report Posted January 24, 2014 So....does anyone know if the jet information in the carb section of this manual applies to any of our vehicles? or is this just for stationary engines? I am trying to determine if the jets in my DTG1 fluid drive (dashpot) carb are correct for my later (54) 230 engine. Thanks, Jeff Quote
