Opinion needed on carburetion
Thinking about replacing the Carter AFB on my '71 351C 4V.
Has an Edelbrock Performer intake. Have been looking at Barry Grant's Demon series. 500+ is tall dollars for a carb, but I hear these are good carbs. Not that anything is wrong with the Carter, but I have this itch. Any opinions? mike |

If it ain't broke, > don't fix it! You are right, but I could probably get more money for the Carter The car does perform sluggish at times while fast as hell other times. Maybe the Carter needs a rebuild, but where to get parts, especially metering rods. |

Opinion needed on carburetion
There is also a company in Florida called "Fuel Force" that claims to build
carburetors to your specifications from remanufactured parts. I used them to get a replacement Rochester for my 73 Eldorado.
