quickfuel slayer series?

[pjc360]

I have been thinking about getting a new carburetor for quite some time now and have had a hard time deciding wich one to go with. My engine is the 300hp crate 360 magnum, my intake manifold is dual plane edelbrock rpm air-gap manifold. I currently have a edelbrock 600cfm manual choke carburetor. And altho the edelbrock is working fine, i just feel like there is more power to be had with a better carburetor.
now i was thinking about getting a demon, but i stumbled across this quickfuel slayer series carburetor, i can get a 600cfm vaccum secondary quickfuel slayer series for 300 bucks.
Thats what i paid brand new for the edelbrock i have, i just wanna know if anyone has any expierence with the quickfuel slayer series carbs? and are they hard to work on? I have no expierence on any other carbs but the edelbrocks because thats all i have ever ran is carter afb's or edelbrocks.
Would i easily be able to learn how to work on and adjust the quickfuel carb if i bought one? it just looks alot more hi-tech compared to the carter/edelbrocks.

Hey PJC.On the 380/360 Magnum crate,the recommend the 750 anyway.I have a borrowed Q.F.T.,on my 360 Magnum.Haven't tried it yet,looks really good qualitywise.I did see the ad of that carb last night.To buy the main body,for adjustable bleeds,and a gasket kit to swap it looking at 200.00.It is a more complicated carb,because of the extra tuneability.If you asked Crackback real nice,he could/would help in this situation.Edelbrocks are simple and nice.Something like what you are looking at,will take time,and be a learning process.

ya i know they recomend the 750cfm but i like sticking with the 600cfm because this magnum is in my 4x4 truck, i like having that extra throttle response.
And yes the quickfuel looks alot more complicated then the edelbrocks.
I need to find a tuning book on the quickfuels if there is one and read it a few times before i purchase one.

it's just like a holley, and yes it will make more power than that edelcrap carb.shouldnt need much of a learning curve as a 300 crate is a good match for that carb.

If your not going to tune for every single ounce of performance,
I'd stick with the Eddy, if you are going the perfomance route, use
the tried and true holley vaccum secondary for a street/mild motor.
Your carb money would probably be better spent on a dyno tune
to maximize what you got than a new bolt on problem to sort through.
Just my 2 cents.
