    I am liking all the recent talk about carburetor upgrades. Used to be, everyone on the board said if you want real power you'll have to go EFI. Give us a few months & we'll all be switching to Funstick's EFI systems - LOL.

    "Hey man, didn't you have the carb conversion from the vintage WWII bomber?"

    "Yeah, but custom EFI is the thing now."

    :lol

    it should be fine. it all depends which carb you are gonna get. i got 2bbr from 360 engine. it is 350cfm, it may be too much but it should be ok.
    just make sure you have no more than 250 cfm carb. after that, mike and talked about it, car would start getting too much fuel.
    anyway, i am gonna use two adapter plates, one from honda to weber and the other from weber to holly. Holly and Motorcraft have the same bolt pattern.
    oh yeah, i found some king Holly 2bbr in the garage. but the bolt pattern is smaller. i will have to figure that one out.

    It would be badass to get a Holley carb.
