408 carb suggestions I just ordered my 408 stroker kit from TSP today & wondering if my Holley 750 DP will give it enough fuel? Here's what I have so far.
TSP forged Crankshaft
Lunati H Beam Rods
Wiseco -8cc Dish Pistons
TEA stage 1.5 Heads off a 5.3 (64cc)
Tick Spec'd cam - 247/254 Dur. 624/595 Lift. 108+5 LSA.
Victor Jr.
1 7/8" zoomie pipes.
MSD 6010
JW 3800 rpm custom stall
12 bolt w/ 4.10:1 gears.
32" x 17.5" x 15" ET streets.
going in a 23 T-bucket that weighs 2250 lbs w/ me in it.
Is this carb gonna get the job done? It's a street car only.

So what do you think as far as different kinds of carbs? I don't wanna spend all this money & then restrict it with my carb. I looked on Jegs & saw they have a Quick Fuel 830 CFM for $539.00 I'v never even seen one though, not sure how they work? or if that would be big enough?

OK, thanks Martin, I'll shop around & see what I can find a deal on. I can't wait to see what that new cam sounds like through my zoomie pipes! My buddy has a similar cam in his 408 but its on a 112 LSA and his sounds badass! I can only imagine what this one will sound & run like!...

Go on Pro Systems website and fill out a complete tech sheet. They were spot on with my carb...I've messed with it but keep putting it back like they sent it to me lol. That's where car runs fastest. Mine is a LS3 head 364 and mine is their 950 carb....spec sheet says it flows 845 cfm
Keep in mind that no ones advertised cfm rating is actually what it flows on a wet bench except for the Holley HP series.
Patrick at Pro Systems is great to deal with

I was on their website & they look cool, I'm wondering how they run on the street though? From the website it looks like they're racing carbs. This is a street only car, it doesn't even have seat belts in it...lol Are they meant for W.O.T use only?
