Low RPM (vacuum?), High load bogging

[Metal396]

I cant nail the gas of the starting line at all. If i do, it will usually backfire through the carb. The extra shot of fuel it needs, at WOT that you were saying, supposedly comes from teh accelerator pump which im supposed to next tune.

Its really beginning to be a pain now. Im thinkin about tryin an edelbrock, which will actually help out in everyday driving anyways, and theyre pretty simple to tune. Easier than holley's anyways. And yes, i do drive my car EVERYDAY.

Changing the accelerator pump nozzle seems to be a bit trickier than going by the edelbrock tuning chart and changing the metering rods and jets. Doing the holley pump cam is simple, but i have yet to find a chart for that. Overall i will have to buy alot more accesories for hte holley than the edelbrock. And what if i put an edelbrock on, adjust the idle mixture screws, and it ran perfectly without any other tuning? Seems more simple than screwin around with a holley that flys right over my head.

Before i start messin around changning carbs and what not im gunna do my exhaust. Cause my car DESPERATELY needs a better exhaust system. Im gunna get hooker comp headers, and have the local muffler shop install 2.5 inch pipes, with 2 chamber flowmasters. How do H-pipes help? The exhaust system will cost 250 bucks alone, after i buy and put the headers on myself.
