Why in the world do you have a small 2 barrel cards on that motor? Wouldnt you want to run a nice 4 barrel card so it can breathe or cant anybody tune there own card anymore? Just asking! OK...... I will make this comment one last time and Im sure that Joker14 and some of the other engine guys on here know a lil more than me. I have been a mechanic all my life, along with my father being a mechanic for 30+ years. With that being said, I work in the marine industry and many many 300-320 HP sbc engines used in boats run a marine version of the 2G..... I absolutely kills me when people think that a bigger engine needs a 4 bbl carb. Heck some of the 454s had 2 bbls on them... anyone that is even the slightest bit familiar with a boat know that the engine is completely surrounded by interior parts and completely enclosed in a "engine compartment", this is way more confined than a vehicle engine.... THEY BREATH PERFECTLY FINE WITH NO MORE THAN 4-6 HOLES,EITHER IN THE SIDE OF THE BOAT OR THRU THE ENGINE COVER BOX, THAT ARE NO BIGGER THAN 4-5 INCHES IN DIAMETER..... its not always the bigger carb to feed an engine but more the right fuel to air mixture.... correct me if im wrong but a 2g is 500-600 cfm and a quadrajet is 600-625 cfm... and thats with the secondarys open! Didn't the early Hemi's come with 2bbls on them? And from what I've seen, a 2bbl can be knocked around more than a 4bbl.

I've seen and heard these motors run. They always perform well. One of them sounds like it was pulled straight out a monster truck. LOL Bart 2525

383 stroker Getting enough air through that? I ran a air filter like that once.. (down the driveway and back) it starved my 350 alot, put a taller filter in and made a world of a difference!
