Rochester Carbs

Has anyone used the new 2 bbl Rochester kits from Speedway? How was the quality and how did they work. Note: I have a 283 Chev with 3x2 supposedly overhauled Rochesters but they are pretty rough.

Thanks.

Bumps, I used the speedway 3-2 kit...works great so far...350 miles on new engine and carbs. big trick is to find an electric choke that clears the linkage

 

Thanks Chubbie. I think I'll give them a try. The 283 is in a '32 and I don't use the chokes at all so it should be a little easier. I'm from Oshkosh........good luck to you.

 

I'm doing either a 57' 283 or 67' 327 in a 57' BelAir. My head choices are 57' fueli, 461 camel humps or power packs. I'd like to stay with a hydraulic cam. What are your ideas on a 60s' style 3-2bbl set up, heads and cam? I want to run progressive but hear that it's tricky. Thanks

 

anyone try these guys before? http://www.hotrodcarbs.com./home.php

 

very nice.... thank you for posting the pics and the good feedback. i was wondering if i should use them.

thanx

 

I chose the 3x2 Rochester for a late 50's/early 60's look. The 283 is fine but you could have better driving with more current carbs. More to go with the Rochesters but solutions look promising (see the other posts). Bumps

 

Thanks. That's nice looking product. I'm going to look at it. Bumps.
