TommyP Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Well after hearing all the good stuff everyone says about those Pro System carbs I finaly called and ordered one for my car. Should be improvement over my 15+ year old vacuum secondary 750. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyP Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 Man, I can't wait. I told them that I have a converter that seems too tight for my current cam. The converter I have now is a TCI Break A Way about 1000rmp stall over stock, but coupled with a solid lifter Comp Cam that's duration is 296. I plan on replacing it with a Coan aprox 3200-3500 stall so they are building the carb to match the looser converter. I really want to see the difference the carb. and converter make together. I think that I'm gonna like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbreese Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Pictures or it's not real!!! . Pretty ain't it. If you don't mind telling what size carb is it? Â David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyP Posted September 15, 2011 Author Share Posted September 15, 2011 Got to figure out the picture thing again, the way I used to do it won't work anymore. I got it put on tonight and started up but in won't seem to idle for some reason. I'll have to check it out latter. I think that it's a 950 body worked down to a 830.

TommyP Posted September 19, 2011 Author Share Posted September 19, 2011 Well I got the Monte to idle with david's help. Turns out it just needed the idle mixture srews adjusted a little bit. I took it out for a test and wow your right Crazy Davey it is a tire burner now. Launcing off the foot brake it used to just leave, now it's a tire smoking ordeal,ha ha. Looking forward to seeing how much faster it is at the track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
