so, my carb hasnt been tuned yet, im uust curious if anyone knows what my deal is.



ive got the rb prepped holley 600 double pumper setup, untuned.



ok, car runs, has a good bit of power only if i either floor it off the line, or downshift and floor it.



however if i keep it in gear and floor it, it just kinda puts along, doesnt really have much power.



has anyone with this setup experienced this, is it a tuning or jetting issue?



i was told it was propperly jetted from RB before being sent out.



thiis is on a gsl-se engine with a stock port.

i still don't understand why do you ditched a perfectly fine EFI, but it is your car I suppose.

he says the injectors were going out, but there wasnt any proof of that that i saw.

oh well, its not having hard start problems, no more idle problems.....



so yeah, i will leave it at failing injectors lol....



simply put i cant feel right not having an exuse to spend that much money on car parts.

would it not have been cheaper AND easier to send the injectors out to be cleaned and tested? or just buy new injectors?



it just makes no sense to me. now i can understand if you were using a blow thru turbo carb kit later on. which you are, right?
