What world are you living in? I suppose a Holley never had a float stick and dump gas all over the place? On a street car, I run nothing but Thrmoquads

I'm assuming stock square bore intake. Either afb or avs. AVS was use in the emissions era & was calibrated accordingly but can be made to run but with everything being equal I would prefer an AFB or an edelbrock replacement for performance.

Robert, FWIW - AVS's aren't only from emissions era. I've pulled a few of them out of '68 383/727 C-bodies, like Sport Furies.

so there were no carb calibration mods for emission purposes in '68? I was thinking that from 68 onward that they were all tweaked to some extent(gov't regs).

If he has a later stock or an aftermarket spreadbore intake then as said a thermoquad is vastly superior & demonsizzler is the man.
