Vacuum Secondaries

If you know how to tune a carb, then you can do both "small" and "large" carbs.... :realcrazy:

That 600 vac secondary runs fine on the 340 and it's not a slug - it can break the tires loose from an idle with just stomping the pedal, no brake torque needed.... I could have kept spinning the tires in the video, but it started going sideways and I let off so I didn't loose control.... :steering:

What year did the 340 start with the thermoquad??? Now what carb was on them for the first 3 years???? :realcrazy:

If you under carb - you only choke it a little on the top end... If you over carb, then you drown it out through the whole RPM range.... :BangHead:

Where's the video of your car, let's see it run.... :bs_flag:


I don't have a video of the car as it was in 1986 Mr. Technical Editor who feels the need to make a perfectly good discussion and turn it into something approaching a slanging match. But just for your information....I raced at SPR for 10yrs, 8 of those years was with the 340 Cuda in Street Class, pictured below is my car on 1 of its launches with that way too big 850DP which was 2/10ths quicker in the 1/4 than the 750DP, which is no doubt too big as well.:rolleyes:
