Which carb for a 144 B&M Blower????
Ok guys I came across a old B&M blower for basically free. I sent it to B&M to go through hone/reteflon/seals and bearings. I know NOTHING about blowers and have never ran one so for you guys that know blowers or this particular small one any carb info would help greatly. I have read tons of forums and a bunch of articals and have have so many diffrent ideas of what can work. This will be a around town cruiser not a strip runner. Here is the info on what I have and will be running:::::
B&M 144 Supercharger 6lbs boost pulley
CHEVY 350 10:1 compression, flat top 4valve pistons, the cam has 218 duration on intake, 224 on exhaust at .50 lift
HEADS are double hump heads that have mild porting and 202 intake valves and 1.6 exhaust., steel crank, je rods.
TRANS is a 700R with a B&M shift kit
REAR end is a 9' with posi and 4.56 gears
TIRES on rear are going to be Hurst Cheater slicks 31" tall
SCOOP will be a firberglass surfer scoop
Hope that is everyting you need to help me out.....to get to the question, Which carb do you guys think will work the best????? Just a standard old holley 750 double pumper(which I can pick on the cheap) OR do I need to spend to money on the 750 Holley that is set up with blower reference?? I was told that the one with Blower reference will run better around town and at idle.
On the standard 750 I will have to mess around with the jetting. Once the jetting is dialed in it will run just OK but still not as good as the carb with blower reference. I have also been told just to run the standard 750 Holley becuse the blower is so small and I'm only running about 6lbs of boost it is not going to make a bit of difference which carb I run.
Thanks guys for any further help on a good carb choice!!
