Been awhile

[Roof man]

Hey guys hope all are well and the birds are taking flight. I have been tying to solve carb problems. Couldn't get the big holly to settle in and was instructed to buy an edlebrock 650. I put it on and it idles great but has a huge hesitation when trying to go. Know I'm told its not getting enough fuel. I going to have. New 650 or sale I anyone wants it. Any thoughts to my fuel crisis. Thx

Need some more info from you, what size motor do you have and the cam you are running along with compression ratio and cylinder heads. This will help us help you.

Hey thanks I new I should've given more info. 440 with 915 heads don't know what size cam or compression.

That 650 seems a little small, a 750 thunder series will probably work better.

Edelbrocks suck put your Holley back on. If the idle is high then you can turn down the secondary idles speed by removing the carb turn it over and there is a screw on the secondary shaft. Turn it down half a turn and put it back on and readjust the idle with the primary screw.

The holly is old and has seen is day. My hot rod shop s taking her in today. Adjust secondaries and rejet. If that doesn't work duel feed double pump holly.

Most people shy away from Holley because they never worked with them but they do provide the best performance when tuned. I have a 750 Carter I also like which Edelbrock is a copy of, but some how they messed them up from what Ive read.

Holley vs. Carter ( Edelbrock) the debate continues:horse: Actually when tuned right most carbs will work,I worked with a guy at Par-K motors who had a 340 Duster with a Rochester quadra bog and it actually ran pretty strong.

Quadra bogs are good carbs

Quadra bogs are good carbs

The last few years Chrysler made 4 barrel carb motors they all had Rochester's on them,the police cars,heck I had an 86 Ramcharger back in the day that had a 360 with a Quadrajet.

The crb is all tuned and still a hesitation at full throttle other than that it runs great. 650 edlebrock thunder. I will run with that for know. Probably switch to holly dual feed double pump. Thanks for all your replies.

Carters = good
Edelbrock = bad
