Re: [Chevelle-list] Carb Opinion

Random thoughts: As engine components go, carbs are relatively inexpensive and easy to replace. Start with the 750. If it's right, you can stay where you are with a great running engine. If it's wrong, it'll still be strong off the bottom, and you can drive it happily a few RPMs off peak until

There is a reason that there are formulas that will determine the amount of air flow for a specified RPM. One thing is for sure, if your car only needs a 750 and you get the 850, your just spending more money on something that wont make your car go any faster. bigger is not always better. Rocky

[Chevelle-List] Carb opinions... Demon? Street Avenger?

Anyone running a Demon carb or Holley Street Avenger? I'm looking into getting a new carb instead of rebuilding what I got (read: selling what I got to recoup the money for a new relateively hassle-free carb that I can buy and install in the same weekend rather than waiting for a shop...)..

[Chevelle-List] Carb for 461

I have a 9:1 454 going in my Chevelle until next winter.  I need to buy a carb for it.  It’s a .030 over 454 motor, all forged internals.  Mild cam (220/230 @ .050).  I was thinking of a Holley 750 mechanical secondary.  Sound like a good idea???   Christian Sager
