A little extra progress on the bird but have been enjoying her a lot these days, fun rides, long walks at the beach...
I experimented a "few" carbs in the last few months:
1- Edelbrock 1406 - 600 CFM, great our of teh box driveability, perfect start up but perfromance was just ok
2- Holley Street Avenger - great at WOT, but slightly sluggish off the start - I believe 700CFM
3- Rochester quadrajet 74 trans am rebuilt off ebay. Nicely rebuilt, good carb, but power just was not there. Found ou later that the carb was rebuilt to factory specs for high altitude, ugh!
4- Edelbrock 1407 - excellent out of the box and great balance. Mileage suffered but who cares
5- Finally!! Steve did an amazing job buildinga killer carb with some greta parts form Cliff Ruggles. Steve is a Rochester Carb meister, and wnet through the setup and dialed in extremelly well for performance. The car really woke up! If anyone needs a build on his quadrajets, I HIGHLY recommend his work!
Now Gunplay is laying under Lolla (68 vert LS1 in progress) in the garage, tight squeeze, but great to be able to stack two rides in a short 9 feet ceiling garage
