Dyno Carb Tuning - V8 Experience

[Trommel]

Now that Raceshack appears to have finally disappeared after Conor LaGrue's departure, who's recommended for rolling road carb tuning?

I know of Tom Airey but they appear to be focused toward the usual classic stuff.

Who else is there who knows Edelbrocks?

Now, if you had a real carb. a Holley , it would be easy.

No silly power valves.

The power valve is easy to do, dont have to be on a dyno to do it.
How many racers in any form of motor sport using American v8's use anything other than a Holley ? that should say it all.

Plenty. Anyway, I have an Edelbrock and a road car.

GRL in Woking have been mentioned - any experience?

Afraid not, I work nearby so will ask the guys at work next week.
You could ask/PM Charlie VIXPY1, he should know somebody that could do it as he's also local.

How so?
Needle change in an edelbrock comprises of removing one screw and sliding the needle out. Jet change comprises of removing the TOP cover and unscrewing the jet - no fuel lost or leaked.

Remind me how you do the same on a Holley?

O/P - you dont state your area - so cant suggest much, apart from getting yourself a wideband and a jet kit and doing the work yourself - it's really not difficult if you have the patience.

As for power valves mentioned by others, I think they're pretty cool.
