This has probably been gone over before, but I figure heck, we all love to talk about our cars and since we can’t get out into the parking lots with the whole pandemic thing I’d like to open the floor up to opinions... that’s right fellas, not necessarily facts but opinions on what he best carb for the job would be?
My car: 1972 351 CJ (4v) 4 speed
Stock engine, except:
Headman long tubes, edelbrock dual plane intake (I believe it’s square, but I guess if push comes to shove I’d need to confirm) MSD IGNITION drop in distributor, and a Holley 670 street avenger carb.
The carb has been set up and chassis dyno tuned for the car. That said it seems to bog down a bit from idle to first gear, meaning if I get on it to hard it sort of sputters. Car is right there otherwise. I’ve been told it’s almost too small of a carb so it was rejetted(carbs are vudu to me boys)so I does seem to smell a little rich.
What are you guys running? What’s worth the investment? And what gives some room to grow should I choose to came it or a future rebuild.
Cheers!
