Up's and Down's

[brandon2701]

Howsit, I was going to put a Holley 750 cfm double pumper onto my LA 360 in my efforts of seeking more simple HP increases. What are the up's and down's of doing this? would i need anything such as a fuel pressure gauge or such to ensure the longevity of my engine and carb.??? Thanks in advance, Brandon

If everything else is stock, you'll not need a fuel pressure gauge.

The up;

Mega tuneabilty, cheap and easy parts to get.

The Down;

The carb could be to large for your application, you could loose mileage, you could loose a lil' drivabilty

But these are coulds and not for sure happenings. Alot depends on your abilty to tune the carb. A new carb IMO is a win win over an old carb.

Yup the engine is bone stock and i was just wondering for future reference and i may possibly just thro it on there for a test run, i do however have a new eddy 650 cfm carb and have been runnin that and she works even w/o a tune up haha thanks for your opinion.
