way off subject my old 360 use to bog off the line with the thormo i had
i went with a holley street avenger and changed to the yellow spring now no hesitstion just my 2 cents
I'm with ya on this one, fellas. The TQ is a very good carb for the small primaries and the overlarge secondaries, which makes it very good for the street. But they are tempermental and need to be babied to work at their peak. So many things to keep an eye on, including the fact that the body is made of a Phenolic material that is prone to warping over time, making it impossible to keep it working at its peak. I'd do a carb switch if it were mine, even though I have been at odds with the holley carbs for years, I would still recommend one in this case. If you're bogging off the line, I would suspect the TQ, although this may be the reason you get a good launch without tire spin. Like the poster said, these cars are very light, and with a good launch, I can see it lifting the tires!!! Good luck joining the 1320 ranks, and I would suggest that your first few passes don't have to be all out record holders. Just work into it slow, and get a feel for what the car can do, then gradually increase your launches commensurate with your confidence level. And most importantly, have fun!!! Geof
