I thought I would toss in my experience on the carb and HTOB. I have a
289 in my TR3A. At the suggestion of a friend and a dyno tuner I
installed an Edlebroch AFB 600 CFM. I then had the engine dynotuned.
The result was entirely disappointing. The carbs only redeeming quality
was that it idled well. At a car show I spoke to a speed shop guy that
divuldged that the AFB has a generic fuel curve that doesn't fit any
engine well. I have since switched to a Holley Street Avenger with much
better performance characteristics.
I called Howe before installing my HTOB. The technitian there actually
recommended setting it up with a little slack.
