Holley's are typically not a very highly recommended carb swap for Super Sixes. BBD's work great as do Webers, but I've read that the Webers can require significant tweeking to get them dialed in.

Lots of info at Slantsix.org


1970 Plymouth 'Cuda #'s 440-6(block in storage)currently 493" 6 pack, Shaker, 5 speed Passon, 4.10's
1968 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible 408 Magnum EFI with 4 speed automatic overdrive, 3800 stall lock-up converter and 4.30's (closest thing to an automatic 5 speed going)

Holley/Weber 2 stage 2bbl.(Never had one.)
2280 was the best mine ever ran (so far) I have a rebuilt BBD off a 273 or 318 Poly I did myself for my 198 slant in my Duster. I haven't tried it on the road as my 4 speed conversion isn't complete.

Super six BBD carbs are hard to find. Always need the throttle shaft rebushed. So do the Holley 2280's.
