Thread: BG 6 Shooter vs Edelbrock Dual Quad?

Tweet

Whether you have carb, carbs, or fuel injection, IMO it would be a better car if it were cammed correctly, wouldn't it? I don't understand why you would want to trade off the sound for performance???? Might become a great car if you were to get on the phone with one of the cam companies and get one built to match your car....

In the case of my recommendation, it is based on the long duration of the camming you are using and that Tri-power setups can be a bit touchy to get dialed in correctly and may still not be optimum for your set up.

BG has a reputation for making good parts and I suspect this set up will be same. I'm just not sure it will cure your complaints. Your basically seeing what I have seen with Tri-Power on this type of engine.

Your basically trying cure a symptom....not the problem and I believe you will have better luck with the dual quads.

In the case of my old Plymouth I'm running into a bit of a simular situation, but can live with the idle that's a bit rich rather than stepping the cam down a step like I possibly should (or going to a 4 BBL or 2) .
