What's your total timing? I agree with some others on here. Small cubic inches, big heads and intake and that's causing the issues you're describing. I'd consider locking in the timing at 35 and either having a the starter switch separate from the ignition or running an ignition with a start retard.




yep thats an option, going to jack it up some more


Do all three carbs have rear jet extensions? Does it bog anytime you open the secondary or only when foot braking it and then hitting the throttle to WOT? I have had carbs. that would bog when to rich, with to much squirter and also when to lean and to small of squirters Keep expermenting and let us know what you find. BTW, I have never tumed a race car that was racing in weather that had more then 40 % humidity except just before and right after a thunderstorm




yes they all have extensions. it hesitates before the car moves. I think it's more of a timing issue now. they guys are saying it may need more with these heads.

I use a set of real weak springs in all of my distributors so the timing is all in by 1500 RPM of lower depending if I strectch them or not Good luck, keep looking

mine is set up like that and I just checked it again. it's in so quick I doubt now that is the problem but I will lock it out just to be sure.

How about fuel sloshing out of the vent tubes into the carb on the hit?

Depending on how efficient your combustion chamber is, 35 degrees may be too much lead. Try setting the total @ 30 and see if that helps. Obviously with a 5200rpm convertor you aren't on the curve anymore when you launch - right???

I had a problem similar to yours last year. I have a 1050 Quickfuel card 4 corner idle. I was adjusting the idle with the front two barrels. The car would pause ( not bog) when I would smash it of the line. Than I adjust the idle per instructions , with all idle air screws. 1 turn with the front idle screw , 2/3 turn with the back. problem went away

they were out 1 turn each from quickfuel. I turned the frons out an aditional 1/2 turn

That could be part of the problem. Most of my holley's work best (foot braking)with the idle mixture screws out 2-2 1/2 turns. This helps the transition from idle to WOT. Some builds have required 3 turns out just to get past a bog with NO load on the engine!
Did they modify the idle ports or change the idle bleeds from holley?

I am not sure Brian i'll run out and get the card. I had the other carb out 2 1/2 turns. I should have turned them out but forgot about it.

Turn the idle screws out another turn & go try it.

With a four corner idle carb ,it is important to adjust the idle on both primary and secondary idle speed screws. Lets say the engine is idling at 800 rpm and you want it to idle at 1100 rpm. You adjust the primary up 200 rpm , the secondary up 100 rpm to get your 1100 rpm.


Idle Speed Screws
Start out by putting a small piece of plain writing paper (.003) between the throttle butterfly adjusting screws (Idle speed screws) and the stops, let the throttle close, now back off (counter clockwise) the idle screw until you can just slide the paper out, now go back in (clockwise) 1 turn on the primary and 1/2 turn on the secondary. To start with anyhow, we want the primary and secondary idle speed screws to be set 1/3 - 2/3rds. The primary end of the carb is designed for idle and light cruise so it only makes sense that we should set the carb up using mostly the primary end circuits to accomplish a good idle

just pulled the car out of the trailer and fired it up. timing is setting at 20* at idle. thought that should be plenty but maybe I need to jack it up more. any thoughts?




Since you've tried 3 different carbs, like others have already mentioned, I bet it needs more initial timing........and that motor will probably want to be locked out with that much cam and all those cubes....

If that doesn't fix it, it obiously needs more fuel.......

how much vacuum do you have at idle? a 340 I had did the same thing, found out I only had 3 inches at idle. played with it to get 9, problem gone. just a thought.

Fully ported 360-1 on a 360 might just have a weak signal
at the carburetor at idle. (Lazy)
