Mopar tq rebuild
How do you like to rebuild, stock parts/strip kit or revamp with Holley jets?

Re: Mopar tq rebuild
I would use stock parts.

Re: Mopar tq rebuild
I think your fishing for an easy answer. I would say, spend the money (three hundred plus dollars each) and have good builder do three carbs for you. then you can compare the carbs back to back. I could tell you which one picked my car up a tenth, but that would give you our answer. Spend the dollars and do some research on your combination.

Re: Mopar tq rebuild
I'm sure others might be more willing to share but there are two reasons not to just give an answer. First when it costs you that or more, you aren't very willing to just give that info out. Second and more importantly like was mentioned, you need to try different setups on your combo. One size does not fit all especially at varying elevations because I can guarantee they will behave differently.

Re: Mopar tq rebuild
What Ed said....but know that you may have to try more than one to get the best. They simply do not all perform the same even with same Holley jets or the rods. Have used both VanLant and Wahl with success.

Re: Mopar tq rebuild
A shame but what they're saying, learn to do it yourself or have a big wallet.

Re: Mopar tq rebuild
What exactly are you suggesting ? 1 builder do the same model carb 3 different ways, or use 3 different builders ?

Re: Mopar tq rebuild
Carb builders get comfortable with their own setup and it's unlikely they would build the same style carb 3 different ways. IMO you should gather info and order one built to suit your combo from " the brand name guy " then later after your making laps you can try another one, then another one, and then............

Re: Mopar tq rebuild
That makes sense. It would be cool to see dyno testing using different center bodies(thinking holleys here) and the same mods. Probably classified info though
