How would six Holley 94's compare to the other popular 2bbls out there and what is the cfm rating of the '94? Thanks, -Dean
I think I remember 94s flowing about 180-200 cfm a piece. Now to kinda hijack your post; I'm trying to set-up a 4x2 intake for 4 bolt carbs. What application of Rochester 2CGs had the smallest cfm? 215 Buicks? 283 Chev? Nobux
I do know that most guys who run 'em only run the center 2 or outside 4. I have heard they are around 180 CFM... I know one guy with a 354 hemi that only runs the outside 4, so running all 6 would need a REAL screamer of a motor.
I know someone running 4 out of 6 hollys on his 283 chevy and they run far better than the 97's .They are a better carb but with more scope for ****ups.You need to talk to suedesled on this board,he runs northwest speed equipment and rebuilds hollys and jets them up right ..........Marq
Anyone know if I need special hose to connect the two sides (fuel resistant?) or don't I need to worry about it? The ones I have are like concrete...
Yeah, you should run fuel resistant hose...should be able to use gas filler hose...I'm running 6 97s' on a 390 Cadillac...I've just heard that the 97's are easier to set up than the 94's on a multi-carb set up...just my $.02....oh yeah...and I'm running all 6 carbs...
I am setting up a 6x2 with 94s for an Olds. Blocked off all the outside (4) power valves, and the center 2 have chokes. Going to run all 6 if at all possible, even though I know it's "way too much". Anyone got a starting point for jets?
Call HAMBer Hotrodjosh at 97Heaven.He's usually in the shop after 3pm.630-665-CARB(2272).Multi-carb setups are his specialty.His setup was featured in a dyno test in HotRod mag a couple years ago.
I have an old McGirk 6X2 intake for a small block chevy. The 94s won't fit on this particular intake because the fuel bowls are bigger then the 97s. So now I have 6 usless 94s and will probably s**** the idea of ever using this intake because of the high cost of good 97s. John
Are the six 94's for sale? I have a 6x2 Setup for an old Nailhead that I need some carbs for. It's gonna be a centerpiece for now until the motor is built. I swear If I was rich, I would have one room of my house dedicated to crazy *** old school intakes and carb set-ups. Why not run all six carbs? Just jet them waayyyyy down. Mike For what it's worth. Give Charlie Price a call at Vintage Speed or visit his website www.vintagespeed.com I've talked to him personally and the wealth of knowledge he seems to have regarding carb set-ups is mindblowing. He commented that the Holley 94's are much less tempermental than the Stromberg 97's
CadillacKid, you HAVE to send me some pics of that hot caddy motor. I always see multi-carb SBC's and Nailheads, but I RARELY see Caddy's. Also, How close are you to Minocqua?
THAT INTAKE IS THE ****T !!!!!!!! I saw an 8 carb intake just like that on eBay about 2 weeks ago. Ever hear of an Octa G***er intake? I saw a pic of one in an old 1964 Almquist Catalog. Send me some pics of the complete (on engine) setup. I'd imagine it's a nightmare tuning those.
You need help with those carbs give me a call and we'll set you up. I also keep em on the shelf for those who don't have them. Or I'll rebuild yours
