I'm running a very mild small block chevy: 355, brodix street heads, brodix intake on pump gas. I've been had some problems finding info on carbed cars turning in both directions so though I might post me questions here.

Do you guys run locked timing? I use more partial throttle then anything but I'm almost constantly adjusted the amount of throttle while drifting. If you run timing advance mechanical or secondary?

Any recommendations on where to buy a modified carb? Anyone have experience with shops? I would prefer to use a holley.

Thanks!

I'd like to see you drift my C70!..Cool!

With drifting it's close to some race marine apps so we pay attention to the metering blocks used and of course the fuel bowl on a Holley.

WE also leave the timming unlocked but depending on the dist you use we make custom mech advance bushing kits so higher initinal can be used while maintaining a low total for fastburn style heads for example.

If your interested send a PM and I;ll give you my email.

front and rear power valves. Also, are you using a Holley HP carb, or just a normal Holley double pumper with the big air horn? If you have the HP carb, you can tune the air bleeds, 4-corner idle circuit. I think the main thing on a road race holley is power valves front and back.
