Re: Any carb suggestions?




I looooove my Carter AVS 625cfm for daily driving, though its not vacuum secondaries, runs clean and has excellent response. So you might try an Eldebrock? People will probably debate this, I personally don't like Eldebrocks for some craftsmenship issues in the linkages and such, but they are consistent, and better for the street than a Holley. I like to use a couple old carters I have for the street, and a big Holley 750 for the track. I run a single plane MP highrise manifold (super stock legal in NHRA) on my 383 so when the motor isn't turning rpms, that holley just fouls plugs.

  Subject: Any carb suggestions?



  Hello.  I've got a rebuilt 1978 440 in my '64 Fury, factory 8:1 pistons, 
  very small Schumacher shorty headers, stock heads, dual-plane intake, 
  and mild cam--.460 lift, 220@50<mailto:220@50> duration, single pattern.  2,500 stall 
  converter with 3:23 open rear.

  I'm going to bust my bank and buy a new carb, with vacuum secondaries.  
  This car will never see the track, and will be driven every day.  I am 
  most concerned with it being responsive, and low- to mid-range power.  
  I'm thinking in the 650 cfm range, but I just don't know.  I don't know 
  what brand to buy, either.

  Any suggestions?

  Thanks,

  Sean
