I finally picked up a new Holley Street Avenger 670cfm for my 347 and unfortunately, I have a fitment problem with my air cleaner hitting the top of my fuel regulator. Here's a pic of my plumbing setup on my 600 CFM carb:



I had been using a nice billet aluminum brack to mount the regulator right off the carb studs to keep everything nice and tight, rather than running hoses everywhere. I put the 670CFM on tonight and think I am going to need to replumb everything. Anyone have some creative pics to share on their setup?

If you have hood clearance, you can run a small spacer or a couple gaskets under the base. Holley makes both.

or just run a pump that doesn't require a regulator.

I got lucky this weekend for a change - I flipped the bracket over and tried it and it fits perfect! Sometimes you get lucky, not often, but sometimes

How do you like the Carb? I put a 670 Avenger on my 331 and it runs great. Really happy with it.

Carb works great right out of the box. Had to adjust the float level a little on the primary, otherwise was plug and go. I had been struggling to make my old Holley 600CFM work (model 4010) with my combination and finally made the purchase. Really made a big difference with drivability and the 347 is a monster.

I went through the same thing. I tried getting a 570 Avenger to work with the 331, but it just wasn't going to happen. Thought about going to a 750, but the 670 worked out really well.
