I no longer want to use anything that isn’t made from billet. The APD sounds like the best deal, but if they use a cast Holley main body I wouldn’t use it.

The billet stuff is so much better and more accurate it’s not funny.

William Baldwin put a video on his YouTube page (it could have been his Facebook page now that I think about it…it was he one or the other) comparing a new main body against an older main body of the same size.

The new main body flowed less because the manufacturing tolerances weren’t as good.

If you get a quality made billet main body it won’t have those issues.

BTW, if you haven’t yet, look into twin blade carbs. I think Tony Morris is the actual guy who has the “rights” to manufacture twin blade stuff (last I knew there was some court stuff going on…don’t know if that’s cleared up yet) but I think they can make more power than a convention 4V carb.

I’ve only had one chance to tune on a pair of them and dang they are nice. Of course the pair I worked with were a mile off and I never got them totally unscrewed.

Hopefully next spring I can get the engine up here on the dyno and flog the crap out of it and get the carbs where they need to be.

Twin blade carbs look interesting, I’ll call and ask, thanks for the tip.
