Back from the track....did worse than last time!!

My brothers heavily modded 327 punched 60 over runs way better with a 750 than with a 650.

The jetting of a carb is crucial. I have seen cars drop 5 tenths when they get the carb jetted right.

Yeah, I'll ge there but it won't be until I get that stealth intake on.
Hopefully, I'll have the stealth on soon. There isn't much I can do, as far as tuning, that I can do until I get that on there.

I had a STOCK 302 shortblock (other than a Lunati cam) from a truck in my car. Vic Jr. intake, iron heads, and a 750 cfm Holley with the Proform main body. And the car wanted MORE fuel! Borrowed my buddies 850 and the car picked up. IMHO The intake is the problem here, not the carb.

No, the vacuum port on the back doesn't HAVE to go anywhere. You're just fine with it plugged.

Indications so far suggest I may need to jet up the 750

More than likely you need to jet it down IMO.
