RE: I agree the generic 600's are no good. |

Royce, I dont run them, I have set up customer's cars with the 450's. With the 450's they are mechanical secondaries, so you dont need the balance tubes. However, when I run 600's or 715's I always run the balance tubes. With any carb I run the stock progressive, and it bolts right up to the 450. Of course with the cross ram I couldnt do that, they were synchronized, set by vacuum at idle, but thats a different animal.
The 450 is unique, its a mechanical secondary but has only the front accel pump, you would think it would bog, but the small bores work fine with a single pump on each carb.
I still love them to death, especially on a street motor, from stock CJ's, to cross rams, to even that 457, I havent found anything that is so easy to drive and so responsive. Keep in mind they were probably a little small for the med riser stroker, but the car was build with a 282S cam, and 3.00 gear in a Glalxie, so the combination worked out super for the rpm range the motor was built for. In a 390, I still thank the 2 450's are more than enough |
