Thread: Street/strip Sb 350 Build Up

Tweet

A properly built Q-jet is supposed to be killer, but that might put you out of your budget. Is this for street, strip, running over old ladies? If you use the vortec's and they haven't been modified, there's only a certain amount of lift they can support. It should be fairly simple to find an intake to match the where the camshaft makes power. In fact, you may want to call the cam companies (can't remember if Erik or it was techinspector that used to recommend this action) and see what they say given your inputs and where you want to be (in terms of heads, engine, exhaust, transmission, etc). Hopefully the specs they give match up pretty well.

I do have some good used intakes and carbs . I have a Edelbrock Torker 1 and a 2101 Performer intake . Also I have A Holley 1850 600 V/S I think its to small . And a Holley 3310-2 750cfm V/S its a nice carb and clean but it needs the power valve protection kit and a rebuild . And I do have an OK 1970 Q-JET from a 1970 350 Chevy . I was thinking of using the Q-JET if my cash runs low at the time when I want to run the engine . But I really want to buy one of those Thunder 650cfm AVS carb at a latter date .
