Calling 340 with Holley 650 dp

It’s pretty hard to get on the mains at idle. Recently I was asked to help a “guy” tune an engine because the carb wouldn’t respond. After about 10 minutes of messing with it I realized it was a Holley 570 4 barrel on about a 450hp stroker. What tipped me off was how any crack of the throttle brought the booster on line. Then I noticed how tiny the Venturi was. But even on that thing it didn’t idle on the mains.

Well if he opens the throttle plate enough to keep it idling.. he can certainly achieve that.
Small carb big motor is thing people do whether they know it or not is a Band-Aid to get a lumpy cam to idle
