17056518 800 cfm Quadrajet on a FE 390
« on: May 01, 2014, 06:27:50 PM »
Need some tips on properly tuning a quadrate for my FE 390. The motor is freshly rebuilt, 10.5:1 compression, a mild cam upgrade, stock heads, edlebrock performer intake, and hooker headers. it also has a 4 speed manual transmission. This all is in a 73 F250. if i forgot something just let me know and ill update the info. i tore into the carb a little bit and see that it has 77 jets in it. Will those be a good start for my setup? any other information and help would be awesome!

Large main airbleed carburetor?

Do you have one of our books?

We can supply custom tuning parts for any carburetor if I have the part number and all of the engine specs?

For sure I would install one of our kits, jets, metering rods and e-choke conversion for that application.....Cliff
