My Holley Street Avenger (Holley 0-80670 Street Avenger 670 CFM Square Bore 4-Barrel Vacuum Secondary Electric Choke Carburetor
) took a dump on me the other day... One day it just flooded out, and the car would barely run. I took the carb apart, but didn't see anything obvious. It was a 670cfm unit, which was good, but it had a vacuum secondary, which wasn't ideal in such a light car with a decent motor and low gears. I couldn't rebuild it myself with any degree of competence, and local places wanted $200-$300. I could buy a new one for under $400 so that seemed silly. So I bought a 650cfm unit with mechanical secondaries from Quick Fuel Technology. I also had the choke horn milled off since I prefer no choke.
I've only started it up to check for leaks and set the fuel float levels. It sure looks like a million bucks. (It was $513.) Hopefuly, it runs as good as it looks!
