I just got a Holley 830 Cfm DP (in pieces) and am trying to deside on what jets to install. 74s Square or 80s square. It is going on my 67 GT 390 Mustang FB Ed RPM Intake ED RPM Heads Crane cam 572 Lift @68 @ 50 Dur 108 lobe centers Should rpm around 6500, Hooker Super comp headers, 4 speed, 350 gears.Its flatting out at 5200 now with a 750 DP.

Made it to the Final Round last wed night. Screwed up on my stage and red lit. 7th round. Car was running consistant 13.24s

Thanks

Glen,

With a power valve in the primary side I'd go with 74 in the front and 80 in the secondaries to start out with. Especially in Fallon. I'm using 83/88 on the 408 w/o powervalves. Power valve is worth abt. 6 jet sizes, so if you've got it/them plugged then 80/80 should be close. The windsors like more jet in the rear, not sure about the "edsel" engines.
Good job last Wednesday night buddy!

Is it an annular carb? The Holley annular carbs use a less jet for a given application because of the larger "signal" the boosters see.
The 830 annular is a great carb BTW.....

Glen,

Try 74/80 with a 3.5 power valve, see you next Weds.
