Hi all: Any suggestions regarding the use of either a 500 cfm or 650 cfm carburator on a 289 Tiger will be appreciated. I'm not looking for drag strip performance, just good street running. My sense

I've run both the Edelbrock 600 CFM and the Holley center-hung-float double pumper, with decent driveability (especially considering I never re-tuned the Holley after relocating the Tiger from Vancou

Hi Paul, I have a 600 cfm Holley on my car with the old style Torker intake, a performance cam and Canon headers. Fuel consumption is terrible at anything above 2500 rpm in 4th gear, but the car acce

I believe that I have read that a 100% efficient 289 would use a little over 500 cfm. Check with TigersUnited for the calculation. The question is: Other than Turbines, steam, and perhaps electric,

You are correct. You could even put in a 4:1 reduction gear and get 400 hp. But for my money, I prefer a lower rpm engine especially considering today's gas. That's why I would choose the stroker wa

I can't resist rising to this bait... Dave, a DC electric motor has huge torque even at 0 RPM, but that still doesn't actually get you anywhere. If your stock engine produced 200 foot pounds at 2000

Actually Dave, it's engine horsepower that 'pushes you into the seat'. Torque at the rear wheels translates, through the gearing, to horsepower from the engine. Said differently, torque at the rear w

The selection of the carb, depends on more than just size. The variables are rpm range, ci, rear end ratio, AT or stick, 4 or 5 speed with OD, tire size, cam, car weight, and the intended purpose. Th

I believe there is some info on this on TigersUnited. I have no experience with a 347. Earlier strokers had problems with rods, etc. But this is supposed to be cured. But I have no direct knowledge.
