I got to try out my homemade 600 Holley race carb. I took a 1850 600VS carb, milled off the air horn, added a new base plate that I had to do some grinding on the main body and I made a new secondary Idle adjust screw to it.
Ran the carb on the Camaro and it is very responsive, will have to see at the track what it wants for jetting to get it right. Just for those who think a 600 cannot go fast, I used to run one that I had modded on my old 454 that ran the best of a 11.67@113mph. Not bad but it would not pull over 5K, hope my new mods help as this carb will go on the Bird.
