I have heard from 2 people now that the carb on my '68 is a POS and I should put something else on it. I know very little about carbs. I have a stock non-HO 350 with an Edelbrock Performer intake and a Holley 650. I have been told that the Holley is "too much carb" for my 350. One of the guys who said that is a mechanic and races some pretty serious dirt track so he seems to know what he is talking about. He said that Holleys are great for WFO, but terrible for just tooling around town. What do you think? I have to admit, I have owned faster muscle cars that have gotten better gas milage (the best I can get is 10mpg with my 4 speed even babying it on the highway).
So what do you think? Should I jerk the Holley in favor of something else? What?
