Best Carburetor(s) for the Tiger
So, I'm wondering about carburetion. On my
260, per expert advice, I have a
Holley 465 CFM carburetor installed --
sitting on an old Edelbrock F4B. The
question is about my 289, which I'm in
the process of installing. The
engine has a mild cam, hydraulic lifters,
original single point distributor,
Rick's headers and exhaust. When I bought
my car, the 260 had a Holley 600
CFM carb on it, which I replaced with the new
465 CFM carb. For the 289, I
was wondering which would be the best choice.
I'm thinking of installing
either the 465, the 600, or a 715 CFM Holley. I
don't know if the biggest
carb would be best, or if that would simply make the
car get horrible gas
mileage. What do you think? What do you have on your
Tiger? Thanks in
advance for your advice!
