Total newbie here, and I'm hoping to draw on the experience and knowledge of you to make my 69 a street worthy car.
When I got the car, it was completely bone stock and ran strong. I could spin the back tire with ease on a stock 350 with a 2bbl carb and exhaust manifold. A friend helped convince me that putting a holley street avenger (4bbl 670 cfm double pumper) on top of a edelbrock torker would make the car much faster.
Ever since I made the switch, the car has lost all of its low end power it seems. It seems very sluggish and doesnt wake up until about 30mph (I don't know RPMS)
To make things worse, since sitting in my garage for a few years, it's even more sluggish than before. It dies frequently when beginning to accelerate from a dead stop, and forget about going fast at all. I can barely make it around the block.
I'm tempted to put the stock intake/2bbl back on there, and be done with it, but I figured I would at least TRY and get explanations as to where I am going wrong, advice on what to do, and learn a few things to make this car an awesome ride I know it can be!
