I talked to several people today, 2 Chevy 6 guys including Langdon. The recomendations were all over the map.
1 yea on Holley Weber, 1 nay(they run too fat according to one)
1 yea on Offy/500 Edlebrock, the others thought it too big
2 "OKs" on 390 Holley, the other said it was harder to get right.
1 "the best choice overall is the Carter YF" which was a surprise to me. However, after reading up on it, a carb with a 50 year production life must have had something going for it.
1 "otta build the stock Rochester BV"
3 nay on Monojets, which is what I was playing with.
Tom Langdon was very vociferous about hot water heat, and that "NO" exhaust heat system will counter the "refrigeration" effect of evaporating fuel in the manifold. I have his plate, but just couldn't figure out a nice "CLEAN LOOKING" way of running the water to it, and rigged up exhaust. Maybe it worked OK here in Idaho as humidity is very low.
