Engine Mechanical / Electrical / Carb tuning
« on: April 05, 2015, 08:16:41 PM »
455 olds and edelbrock performer intake and holley 700cfm. 150 compression.. carb just seems out of it. Can anyone give me some pointers on tuning. Ive been having to start it with starting fluid. And it wont idle when cold at all. I have to keep giving it throttle to keep it running. Im not realy experienced when it comes to carbs.

« on: March 02, 2015, 07:04:30 AM »Depending on what all else you plan, your best bet would be to stick with 112° lobe separation and mild lift with longest possible duration.ok cool. Thanks alot for the help.! I love this site. Filled with people willing to give newbies advice and point people in the right direction such as myself.
I really like the Comp Cams Xtreme Marine XM270H for situations such as yours. It's a proven off the shelf stick with a pretty good track record.
Hope that helps.
