    Tri power carbs on 440 six barrel?

    All that link gives me is an empty Jegs shopping cart. :(

    Octane rating when mixing Regular gas (93octane) with Racing fuel (110) octane.

    I don't understand why a slower burning fuel with less chance of detonation means that you need "a quality set of forged piston." That article (thanks) didn't mention that problem either.

    Octane rating when mixing Regular gas (93octane) with Racing fuel (110) octane.

    No, I didn't see it online. I had it in a magazine article but no idea where it is now.

    Octane rating when mixing Regular gas (93octane) with Racing fuel (110) octane.

    It's been well known that adding lead increases octane. It was a popular trick in the 1970s, with published tests showing the improvements, to mix unleaded and leaded gas. A 50/50 mix of regular leaded and regular unleaded resulted in higher octane than either on their own, due to the 'kick'...

    383/440 2BBL CARB CFM

    Custom, yes, but I don't think Holley sells anything that large. They used to have the 600 cfm. 2bbl which would reach 650 with the optional velocity stacks, but you can't get it from them any longer.

    383/440 2BBL CARB CFM

    The conversion factor is 1.414. Which means that the 1350 cfm. for a six-barrel 440 would flow 954 cfm. if it was measured the same way, as if it was a four barrel. This page shows various 2bbl Carters that Chrysler used over the years, none of them go over 365 cfm. or, about the same as a 260...

    Since when does Edelbrock make a Holley carb?

    I guess that means that in future, Holley carbs will be sold, but Holley won't be making them.

    Since when does Edelbrock make a Holley carb?

    The Edelbrock doesn't have a removable base, so...one less gasket.

    426 Hemi Gen II with 48 ida Webers Carbs

    Just for comparison, Shelby raised the 271 hp. 289 up to 306 hp. in the Shelby Mustang. But with four weber carbs, got the power up to 385 hp. for the Cobras.

    426 Hemi Gen II with 48 ida Webers Carbs

    Do you have the intake for that, or planning on fabricating a custom one? Keith Black used to sell that style long ago, pretty hard to find now.

    New fuel tanks are battleship gray, where to set a silver tank?

    Spectra doesn't galvanize their tanks, they are Ni-Terne coated, just like the factory originals.
