Nice work! I appreciate the knowledge you share! You know your stuff and it shows!

50cc accel pump and 40 squirter helped my truck boogie. My truck is like 4600lbs on 35s though. Also, the street avenger is notoriously known to have a lean spot off idle because the IFRs are too small. Stock theyre .028 so you should reall drill them out to .032. Makes a huge difference

One step at a time! You'll get there.

Great Tech Video, boy I sure can tell it's hot and humid your way. Been mighty hot, but serious drought here..

That's some good tuning tips and it won't take much more and you will have it screaming with the tap of the throttle and it will be a really fun truck that will suprise unsuspecting racer wannabes out on the street

Great tips on the Holley, I gave up on the old tired 750 double pumper on my demon, it was a mechanical secondary, probably good back in its day. I put on a new 650 AVS2 Eldelbrock, I love it so far, it has the annular boosters supposed to help with the air mixture. I've always been one of those Carter guy's love the AVS and Thermoquad's. I guess I'm just not good at tuning Holley's. Great tips thanks for sharing!

Is it a bad idea to use a magnum oil pump drive with a flat tappet cam?

[jcnewbee]

Great info for that person that thinks they need a vacuum secondary...lol

is that an air gap dual plane or air gap single plane ? if it's a dual plane put a 1" 4 hole spacer with a relief gap between the the plenum dividers on the 4 hole . if it's a single plane put a 1" spacer with a 4 leaf clover shaped center . I can send a pic of the spacer if your on Facebook or instgram ? it will help with throttle response and relieve the pressure from the pulses in the plenums

What accelerator pump cam did you switch to?

I seem to remember lotsa car guys complaining about the avenger. Some said the primary fuel block is not made correctly and the best way to make it a great carb is to replace it with a proform of Barry grant or some other aftermarket. Can anyone back this info up.
