Re: Which Carb to Buy?
Unless its a race only truck stay away from Holley. if you want it to run good, stay away from Edelbrock, im not up on any of the quickfuel or any other off brand, or race carbs, but I wont run the first two i mentioned. Ive ran a rebuilt Quadrajet on built small blocks, a GMPP HT 383, and a factory big block Quadrajet on a fairly fresh 454 that had more (consideribly) than 400 HP. I've had considerably better luck with Quadrajets than anything else I've had on any of my trucks, or any of the ones my dad has had or built, for daily driving duty or play. The last two rigs I've got had Holleys on them and they ran great at startup and full throttle, no where else. And in general Edelbrock has given me the most issues, the worst running, and left me stranded more times than the other two. This is just my .02, others will disagree but that's my experience. Stay Quadrajet if you ask me.
