I agree. The 660's were designed back when there was no such thing as a doublepumper carb and tunnelrams were the size of mailboxes. The fast cars that used 660's required extensive carb mods that are not needed with the DP's. In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

Haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but the 600's sucked big time, 750's didn't work well either. The 625's worked nice. Now like I said the 660's haven't been run much yet. As yoy can see in the picture, they are really worked over. Throttle response seems good, but like I said I really haven't driven it much yet. Let alone run it at the strip. 6073361-DSCF0006.JPG (117 downloads)

Yes No...Because there is only one squirter per carb. Its really not enough fuel shot with that much plenum volume to get the car moving without stumbling a little. You would be far better off with a single plane and just a double pumper. The old school crap can work, but not like the modern annular carbs with all the jettable air bleeds and such. If you do it, you will wish later you had spent the few extra bucks for real carbs instead of buying them twice.

The Tunnel-Ram maybe o'll school but its faster. I found out the Hard Way the Trick of the week stuff never works. Unless your have extra $$$ to throw away.

I will be using 2 carter comp 750 carbs on my 440.I know everybody does not like them. but i went 10.50 at 127 in my old 3500 pound 11.1 compression 440 powered 65 Plymouth and they were box stock.I would love to try some 750 dp on my car but i don't have the money to switch everything over to Holley. I say if you already have the 660 to give them a try. best of luck Mopar65 6074027-100_0776(Large).jpg (78 downloads) 3520 pound race ready 1973 Street/Strip Dodge Dart - Stock stroke 440/727 10.49 @ 125.0 on 93 pump gas & ET Street Radials.

I will say they arent much for tuning, and jetting alone doesnt help much. But they work near best right OOTB or factory specs. Last edited by Bob_Coomer; 07/07/10 07:25 PM.

beezer member B Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 37 illinois,u.s.	I ran a set of 660 center squirts on my 452 RB for years. They were done by Chuck Nuytten. I had them on a 3400 lb. Super Bee, a 2200 lb. 33 Ford 5 window coupe and a 1900 lb dragster. In all the years I ran those carbs I didnt change the jetting in them more than 3 or 4 times and after I changed it I came right back to where it had been when I started.
