Just got my '68 Camaro back from my engine builder, I had a 383 stroker built, w/flat top pistons, dyno'd last week at 347 hp. Right now it has an Edelbrock carb on it, my mechanic didn't have much luck getting it set right when running under a load, this carb was new in 2003 but it also ran flat (on acceleration and midrange rpms) on the 350 I had it on, so I'm not real happy with it.
I'm thinking about purchasing a different carb, what would be the smoothest running carb for a 383? I'm not interested in racing, just smooth idle and accelaration. Years ago I had a Rochester Quadrajet on a 327 (275hp) Camaro, it ran great, it just took off on acceleration. Is that the way to go, or is a Holley carb a better investment?
Thanks everyone--
Terry
