Hi,
My car since i rebuilt the engine has ran really really ritch well today when i went out and ran it the thing slowly died and then smoke a lot of smoke poured out of the carb . The primary jets must be 100's it was a race carb on a drag car back in the 70's. The cab is a 650cfm holley single pumper non v shaped fuel bowels and has vacume secondaries. The engine set up is a 289 edelbrock performer intake and performer cam, flat top (not dished) pistons and the heads i will change to 54cc's. CAN ANY BODY TELL ME WHAT A GOOD JET SIZE IS FOR A HEALTHY RUNNING ENGINE, I want to be able to take it to the track and do a fairly decent time. But this cant be good if at idle it smokes black, it probubly is washing the cylinder walls right. does any body know how to tune a carb out really nice.
Thanks
