My motor came to me from the builder with two Holley carbs sitting on a LR 427 dual quad intake. I'm building a street roadster w/o a hood scoop. At the time I didn't get into any particulars with the builder as to particular carbs to install or not install. He wanted to use 600 cfm carbs and that was pretty much the extent of the discussion.

In looking at them they both appear to be the same model carbs. The air horn markings on both are F 1850-12 and 1230. This motor is pretty much old school and built to be streetable with 9:1 compression, 4.25 in crank, iron heads, 230 deg plus cam with about .570 lift.

The motor seemed to rum pretty well on the dyno but I'm wondiering how these carbs will be on the street. Max power alone isn't my main objective. Strong power with good driveability is more important. Anyone have any experience with a similar setup?

Thanks
