I know, no worries. I don't mind. I have a buddy that flat refuses to use a holley. Drives me nuts. His bro gave him a 850DP to try he WON't put it on......I told him to put it on and if it didn't drop his et 3 tenths I'd buy him a case of beer.

I've run 6.90's in the 1/8th with a tweaked 440 AVS before in a 440 a body, that's roughly a low low 11. Went just as quick as a 4779 holley but more consistent in hot weather.

A lot of guys don't know how to tune avs/afb's, or holleys, Q-jets or Webers....but that's not the carb's fault.

I run an 800 thunder AVS on my 427" small block Cobra, works better and is more tractible around corners than any Holley I've ever run....quick tip, on anything much over 450 horse running an AVS, it's best to run a dual line to the carb because the main achilles heel of the AVS/AFB design is the float bowls are a bit small for sustained High RPM power fuel flow, a single feed relies on internal cross-over flow.

World's Quickest Diahatsu Rocky (??) 414" Stroker Small block Mopar Powered. 10.84 @ 123...and gettin' quicker!

OK a hypothetical question and a honest answer. I'm sure with enough money you can do a lot, BUT, every joe out there with his 4000lb car ain't gonna get his car into the 10's with a single 4 barrel. How fast do you want to go = How much are you willing to spend.
