I was just hoping to get some of your opinions on this one...305, comp xtreme energy 262 cam, performer rpm manifold, and world 305 heads, which carb would you recommend me using for this setup, i'm sure i could get the q-jet rebuilt(runs horribly)but i'd would rather spend the money to get a brand new carb....thanks a lot guys

 

Road Demon 625 or Speed Demon 650 DP.I can hear the Holley faithful coming already!!Yeah I know they are expensive..I have one.:lala:

 

I have a Holley on one car and q-jet on another.

Road Demon sounds good to me.

 

The Road Demon is an awesome carb and has plenty of tune abality for engines a low as 200hp up to 375+hp

The combo you are talking about would work quite well with a road demon, Although it comes jetted quite rich 70/78. The choke and mixutre are also very rich from the factory.

I currently run a Road Demon on my 350 with 882 heads EX268H and Performer RPM, its an awesome little carb that runs well in the cold the hot and the hummid.

Go with the Demon

 

But i thought with a manual tranny, a mechanical secondary carb works best??? i'm just going by what i heard so i may be wrong, any opinions?? and i may be wrong about the road demon as well but isn't it a VS carb?? thanks for the replies guys

 

carter competition series 9625 (625 cfm)or edelbrock 1405 (600cfm)

cant beat them on bang for the buck

 

Thanks but sorry, i'm not to fond of edelbrock carbs...anyone one the VS vs. mechanical for a manual tranny???? and what about a holley 650 double pumper?? how reliable are they? thanks again to all of you

 

Manual=mechanical

Auto=vacuum

 

Thats what i thought, thanks a lot! so i'm down to 2, a holley 650 double pumper, or the speed demon 650....any opinions?

Thanks if the money is here i'll just get the demon, if not i'm sure the holley will perform just as well thanks to all of you guys!

 

pablo if you ever recommend an edelbrock carb again, i'll fly to japan and slap you.

What's up man! it's been a few years.. icq me.. or msg me on AIM (id shaneb383)

p.s. if someone can fix my shanebuss account i'd appreciate it. I dont have access to any of the boards for some reason.

 

hahaha sup shane... ill see if you are on aim when i get on but youll probably be asleep unless you are up at like 4 am. Good to see you are still around and didnt kill yourself with that bike hehe

and dammit carter makes a fine carb, under 200 dollars! with the money this dude saves on a carb he could buy like a few other go fast parts instead of a carb and I bet there will be no difference in 1/4 mile performance especially on that car.

 

Dude, are you trying to say my car is slow? and it will always be slow? no matter what i do my 1/4's won't change? haha i'm just kiddin man thanks for trying to save me some money...i just don't want to give up that much drivability, i have not had good experiences with Edelbrock carbs...just preference man, but thanks anyway.....

 

Pablo, I totaled a couple of bikes, then my third one got stolen.

I'm out on the bike scene after my best friend died right be side me while we were riding wheelies.

The cars are still the only problem.

2001 Trans Am With Hotcam, Exhaust, Lid, Nitrous, Torque Converter

1992 Firebird has a 383 stroker roller motor coming... should be around 500hp/500ft lbs.

;-)

 

Hey Pablo, been years..........what the hell are you doing in Japan?????

 

yeah where have ya been chris! i was wondering what happened to you and all those crazy street race stories

I joined the Marine Corps like a year and a half ago and they decided to send me here.. go figure eh!?

BTW im an aircraft mechanic, a hydraulicsman to be exact hah Hows your A&p schooling going?

 

Well, I was working as an A@P (sheet metal mechanic to be exact) at Hamilton Aviation here in Tucson until I got laid off. SUCKS fat dick. So now I'm working ****ty side jobs until I can get a decent aircraft job again. Did they let you bring your car to Japan? LOL crazy street race stories. I think those days are coming to an end. I got a few tickets including a Racing on the highway/Exhibition of Speed that I'm fighting in court at the moment, so lets just say I've changed my driving habits just a bit..............now I make check passes before I race
