I was asking about the engine size, looks like a 350, right? I would think the 370 - 390 CFM would be about right. Can't help you with where to...
How big is your SBC?
Thanks Larry, you da man
'32 will always win because it's a '32.
This sounds like a vacuum leak to me. I also have a 670 CFM Street Avenger on a 350 ZZ4. It came from Holley new with .65 and .68 jets that...
