:does anyone know what might be the best metering rods and jets to use for an edelbrock 600 carb ?i know i need a qjet but for right now i have to use what ive got. mods are as follows:ta 212 cam fullt ported and polished heads w/ stock valves ported stock intake and exhaust manifoldstrue duals and 2.56 gearing with stage 2 shift kit. any advice is greatly appreciated. jeff bullock ps forgot to mention stock torque convertor and 8.5:1 comp.
I think the best route would be to get a bigger carb! maybe a built 750cfm or a nice 800cfm would really make your engine feel brand new. Just my 2 cents... Daniel
don't want to get this topic off track, but how does that setup run? that's about what I'm planning, cept I'm gonna use headers.
72 skylark:i haven't had the car to the track yet but from my guesstimations on a quarter mile stretch of road using my watch w/timer it looks to be around mid to low 14's. i really think a higher stall convt. and some 3.42's or 3.55's would really wake this thing up. the problem i'm having is with the carb . it runs really strong after @ 2500 rpm but it seems to be starving for fuel after about 4200 rpm . its a little soft out of the hole but does pull pretty strong. overall i'm very happy with the ta 212, i dont think you can get a better cam for the street. it really loves to eat eagle talons and all the other triple wing p.o.s.!!! sure do love to spank those import punks.:spank:cant wait to get my 800 cfm qudrajet
