Car Forum / Chevrolet / Chevrolet Trucks / July 2007650 dbl pump vs 600 VS carb
I want a decent carb for my 327 but am not to sure about the 650 dbl pump carb I have and how it would perform.. I have a stall converter th350 /327 bored 60 over performer PM intake combo so need a bit of advice on what you guys would use.. I also have a 750 VS carb but it acts up.. > I want a decent carb for my 327 but am not to sure about the 650 dbl pump >carb I have and how it would perform..

Even a 600 is a bit big for a 327 but if that is smallest option you have use it. With a 750 it would run poorly most of the time. Based on 90% efficency in induction (if you are lucky) you only need about 520 CFM at 6000 RPM with a bored 327. Smaller carbs give better low RPM responce and torque. A carb is one thing where bigger is not always better. ----------------- TheSnoMan.com I was thinking to put smaller jets in the 600 VS carb I have. I agree , it wastes gas to run that big.. If I could get a decent 550 carb, I would be happy but up here in shitholeville , not many hi performance stores..

I also am running a >234/234 .488/4.88 lift cam.. thanx snoman.. WHat are you planning for you peak RPM (I am guess that cam should peak HP between 5000 and 5500 depending on intake). It you have no plans of taking past 6000 regularly I see not problem with a 500 CFM one on that engine. The reason you want to stay smaller is because you have a higher average velocity in venturi and better mixing and metering of gas which improves throttle responce and mid range torque. With a carb in a big heavy vehicle is it better to error a bit small than a bit big. BTW a 500CFM 4bbl is rated at 500 CFM at 1.5 inches of mecury in pressure drop across carb (about .75 PSI) so it can flow well beyond 500CFM with just a bit more drop. ----------------- TheSnoMan.com the cam I have is 2500-6500rpm I won't run it past 5500 as I would hate to miss it and hit 7k, and blow her up.. 327's like to rev ..and this thing even though bored 60 over picks revs up fast. >>found a new 500 cfm edelbrock.. would that be decent ?..

I'l use the 600 (as I just had it rebuilt tonight) and if it gives me any issues with flooding etc.. I'l buy the 500 edelbrock..

I'l use the 600 (as I just had it >rebuilt tonight) and if it gives me any issues with flooding etc.. I'l buy >the 500 edelbrock.. Thanx for all the advice.. The reason it is stalling at about 2500 RPM is because the engine is not making enough torque to hit rated stall due engine build/cam. Knowing this I think I would suggest that you install a 3500 RPM stall or try advaning cam about 4 degrees as that will increase lower RPM responce. They make offset keys or a degree wheel. (retarding cam increases top end a bit) Smaller 500CFM carb would help too. BTW, 6500 is no big deal for a 327 but I would consider a RPM limiter set as 6500 or a bit less to keep it from overreving with that cam into valve float. ----------------- TheSnoMan.com > > I want a decent carb for my 327 but am not to sure about the 650 dbl pump > >carb I have and how it would perform..

Big Al Your forgetting they also had crossram with two 4295 600 cfm holleys... 1200 cfm, a little over kill. But along with what snoman is saying most cars are over carbureted. 600 is about perfect for a 302 or 327. When younger and dumber I ran 850 dbl pumpers on everything. From my 165 hp factory 350 to my 600 + hp 454... same carb just rejetted. it ran like sh.t on the 350. With factory heads you'll never flow that much cfm, butterflies will be open but not that much air going thru. Also on the stall, it takes torque to stall a converter. On a stock engine a 3,500 will only stall 2,500- 2,800 give it more power you can bring it up to the 3,500. Worked on a race car that had vacuum advance that had a 3,500 stall, wouldn't stall past about 1,800 put a timing light on and set total advance to 38 with no vacuum advance and it stalled to 3,200 (engine didn't have enough power to stall to 3,500) What application are you using the 327 in ? |
