hitman,drivability was absolutely wonderful...even with a cam in the 240-250 @ 050 range.after tuned it worked flawless and anyone who didnt know better thought it had a holley on it.it still also managed 12 mpg average...with a 8" convertor.

An 8" converter can cover up a lot of little driveability issues... Originally Posted by juicedimpss

That's why am still friends with you...

last i checked,the jets and PV were also inside on a holley.yeah the jet is a lil more of a pain to tune but in reality once you get it sorted out its muchless finicky than even a holley and honestly is a much more efficient carb.the holley is a simpler design and pretty much any hillbilly can throw jets at it to mask drivability issues it inherntlly has.

Chris got the car going pretty smooth, so I took it to GLD on Friday. I wasn't looking for much out of it, but I can't say I was excited. I doesn't pull for shit over 4k, and no traction off the line. My 60' times were a putrid 2.28 and high 2.1's....
All it really has is a cam, intake, and some gears. I would like to get a set of aluminum heads or a super charger eventually......

Please tell me there is no difference between an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, and an Edelbrock Performer RPM Qudrajet intake. I never noticed it before, but it's in raised letters
It has the Q-Jet version.
Just wondering if could have anything to do with the reason why the engine doesn't pull for shit over 4k?
Engine Rebuilders put the wrong number intake on I guess in 04'.?WIP

Thats the only thing I could figure, it's not the model we told them to put on it, but it works I suppose.
