Another 416 Stroker Build-Pic Heavy

Carbs....in 1986 I bought a new Holley 800DP from Summit. It was $202, which was big, big money.

That carb, which I still have in a box on the shelf, ran great. It was 'the' carb we'd swap onto any engine that was having questionable carb problems, to see if it was really the carb or not. No matter what, it always ran well, made good power, and had no bad behavior.

I've always assumed it happened to be one that slipped through the production line without any bad castings, partially clogged passages, or misalignments. Whatever.

One spell was a 2 year period where it saw daily service on my driver, which was driven to the track on weekends and raced, every weekend. Took it off to install a Hilborn injection setup....which instantly dropped 1/2 second off the 1/4 mile time. lol.
