ok. cool. thanks guys. you guys arethe best.

Had good luck with Holley's. Bought a 2bbl demon before they went out of business that I put on my flathead. It's stuff. Has a horrible stumble at tip in from closed throttle.

Pegleg, when did Wally go to edelbrock? He had been running a Quick Fuel ( copy of a Holley ) in the loe 12s.

Gary, If he changed over to the Quick Fuel I missed it. Sorry. i was kinda busy trying to figure out my own fuel problems last year. turned out the fuel pump had unscrewed itself and was ready to fall off! That won't happen again. Wally and i talked in the pits and discussed Edelbrocks, but I never looked at this years combo. I know he ran a 750 Edelbrock last year, so high 12's.

Check Charlies Columbus pictures for this past sept and the year before, it shows a Quick fuel on wallys engine  which would be 2010 and 2011. 2010 I ran him in the t-bird and the Quick fuel was on it then but I don't know when he put it on????

By the way Pegleg, I'm glad you got your fuel system worked out.

can i holley 600 cfm be made to work on a 292? I have a college classmate that has a holley 4bbl. thought it was a 600cfm and might get it for cheap. can it be made to work?

A 600 cfm is plenty big and can be made to work fairly easily.  It will probably have to be re-jetted of course but even a mild or stock cam will be happy with it, IMO.  I have an R-1850 Holley that is probably 40+ years old and it has worked well on a range of engines from 289 to 428 cu. in.s.  It's still one of the best carbs I own.

for those of you who are running a holley 600 cfm, what jets are you running?

I like my original '57 Mercury Carter AFB; has always worked good.   JLB
