Well seeing the updates on someone car,
I got hit with adding a little Show and Hopefully some GO.

First pic is before 600 Holley.
next is upgraded to 750 d/f alittle nicer.

But had to go into fab mode to get in on.

Quick tune and it sounds like it has a few more hp freed up.

Can't wait to test it.

Hope the milage does not drop off too much.

I took it to the Ford Dealer for a parts run.

Will have to check the mileage later, She runs like 2 monkeys after a Football.

Before it seemed lacking and would have to wait for the sec's to kick in.
And would not run past 5200 rpm.

Now it will tach 6500 {don't blink} and peg the speedo in a rolling 1/4 mile run.

I did notice that the low end seemed to drop off slightly, may need to fine tune it still.

Any of you number crunchers got ideas?

I'm glad I inspired somebody I like the comment about "She runs like 2 monkeys after a Football."

Had to do something to get an edge,
It was one of my ebay buys for the rebuild.
New 750 never used,had broken choke cover, 1 bid and 3 mins left.

He bids and SCORES, 145.00

add the duel feed line and the best improvment for under 200 bucks I've done in a long time.

Should have put it on sooner.

Click to expand...

Showing your ignorance once again, I see...

You've yet to add any useful information to the debate. You merely plagerize passages from a book which you don't understand. And while I'm at it... You're dreamin' if you think you'll hit 10's with your rig, even with juice. You HOPE for 475 at the rear? You don't know? Of course not... what else is new.

Sorry to all, except 10secgoal, for hijacking the thread. Looks like a great buy on the carb!

Looks nice pabear... now you just need a shiney new intake to match that carb. I swapped to a road demon jr instead of my worn out 600.

Thanks, I have a new eddy to put on when i rebuild it.
Along with a few more parts.

But i want to rework the Cougar first and then do a make over on the Stang.
and add rear disc with maybe a rack&pinion.

Ok have done some minor adjustments and She seems to really like the larger carb.

It will Tach 6.5 and no valve float or power drop off.

I have taken a few passes at the marked quarter mile and it Screams.

As for cruz speeds it Goes great with MUCH less throttle then with the 600.
so there may be hopes for some Mileage yet.

Now if i could find the Crank and Rods,
