Car and carb specifics;

Engine specifics are posted much earlier in the thread. It is a pretty mild 428 bored and stroked to 447.

Quickfuel HR 850 mechanical secondary (air horn milled)
80 primary jets
86 secondary jets
65 power valve in the primary
No power valve in the secondary
Primary accel pump cam is pink in 1
Secondary accel pump cam is red in 1
IAB 70 both ends
HSAB 33 both ends
Idle Fuel Restrictors were .037 both ends - fixed by drilling to .040"

Trans is a TKO600 with .64OD
FInal drive is 3.54

The throttle response across all ranges is much better than the Holley 750. The power comes one at a lower rpm because the secondaries come open immediately. Tire spin is much easier; like that was a problem.

No report on gas mileage. Double pumpers are notorious for poor mileage.
