In this case 255 inline Chevy 6 cylinder. The modded carb is equal to 450 CFM and performs flawlessly. When in normal cruise RPM's, the carb runs one 1 primary throttle blade and when power is needed, both secondaries will then open providing the CFM's for power. As shown, this carb delivered almost 21 MPG going on highways ranging from 55-75 mph.
I know you are asking yourself, why convert it to a 3 bbl when the 600 4 bbl should also perform well. When running both primary's at cruise speed, the throttle position is not very far open and you are running on the idle circuits on a small engine. This is a inefficient fuel / air mixing circuit. When running a single primary, the blade will be opened further, promoting better fuel/ air mixing with the venturi . Cam is a same as my Thrifty cam at www.12bolt.com . I sell a instruction sheet and the special plug to modify either a 600 or 750 Holley. They take different plugs. The secondary opening rate is adjustable on these carbs to tailor it to your engine. |
