Intake and carb choice. Holley or Edelbrock. Stall convertor

[a_barth]

I'm not opposed to holleys and yes for true performance they are the best design but every carb has its place. I have been happy with edelbrocks and have had good luck with q-jets especially in the offroad world. Traditionally afb's and q-jets have worked better of hillclimbs etc. while the holleys design tends to allow them to flood easier on an incline. I've got a 750 holley on the shelf for a future street project though and am considering it for my 400 in my C30.

Holleys suck offroad unless you have the truck avenger. They are one of the best offroad carbs there is. Spring loaded needle and seats control the bounce of the floats and the unique primary annular booster with it's metering can tackle super steep pitches.



JKeith.....350 "stock" heads could be 2.02 fuelie if an LT-1 but not likely. if you have an average mid 70's + motor, those heads are probably small valved and restricted. Be careful with cam and carb choice. Like my wife says "keep it small honey"!!

Casting numbers would help on the heads.
