What primary jet sizes you guys suggest for slight upgraded 318cid ( Edelbrock Performer intake, Holley 600cfm carb, mild CompCams flat tappet cam, 9,0 compression, headers )motor. It pulls Dodge B250 van

Thanks
Georg

If your're driving it on the street, I wouldn't stray too far from what came in the carb from Holley. If you're racing it with open headers, maybe a step or two richer.

It depends on what carb you have. The manual choke Edelbrocks are set up rich out of the box, the electric choke are set lean for mileage.

Fortunately, Edelbrock makes calibration kits that contain enough parts to adjust the mixture.

Assuming your carb is manual choke, it may be right out of the box or may need to get a little leaner for best power.

I think out of the box jetting and watch plugs. Or get a o2 sensor and get it right on.
