Best place to buy Rods/Hangers??

Yes, I know it's been asked before, did a search, and I haven't found a definate answer yet.

I'm looking to get CK rods and B hangers, unless someone with experience setting up carbs can recommend a better combo, to which I'm all ears!

Car runs good as is, but I know this LG4 replacement carb is'nt set up like the junk L69 carb I had on it was. I figure there may be a couple extra HP left if I find the right combo.

Any help appreciated. Mods in sig.

Uhhh...only thing I see at Summit is complete recalibration kits for 104.00!!!

How about a place that has the individual rods/hangers? Just get them from a dealer? I've heard some are discontinued (such as a B hanger).

Or if they have another hanger that may work better.....

Uhhh...you didn't look hard enough!!!

Edelbrock hangers from Summit

Edelbrock rods from Summit

They are hard to find in the catalog, I'll give you that much.

Air and Fuel Delivery->Carburetor Accessories
Then under Edelbrock look for Edelbrock Secondary...

Thanks for the help....

I ordered CK rods and B hanger, along with other stuff from Summit today. Hopefully, I'll see a little more power out of it. Now I need to look into getting a quicker vacuum breaker for the secondaries..

go to a junk yard and find every qjet they got, most of the time you can pick them up for a couple bucks a piece, buy a few, and buy all the rods they have.
