What carb(s) should I use?
By Will - 10/10/2000 6:50:41 PM; IP 24.26.244.215
I've got a 428CJ, Edelbrock heads, big solid cam, C7ZX shelby 2x4 intake, and Holley 1850's in a 67 GT-500 clone. When I drive the car, I can smell gas. I don't know what mileage I'm getting, but it stinks. Could over-carburetion be the source for the gas smell? I can't find a leak anywhere. Does the 67 GT500 smell like gas when you drive it? My next step is to replace the fuel filter and the needle/seats. I love the visual effects of the 2x4, but would I be better off with a sidewinder? Maybe I would be better off stepping down from 600cfm's to 450cfm's. That's a lot of money for guess work, though. For that matter, so is a new intake.
This thread, so far...
