Holley spread bore
I have a Holley spread bore 6210 that needs a rebuild.
How do they compare to Q-Jets for DD duties? |

Re: Holley spread bore
Its hard to beat a Q-jet for drivability & gas mileage.

Re: Holley spread bore
6210 is a 650 cfm carb,,,
What engine is this going on? Mods? Cam? Heads? Trans type and model? Rear gears? https://allcarbs.com/product/650-cfm...rburetor-6210/

Re: Holley spread bore
It would be going on my 65 G10 van.
350 sbc, TH700R4, 3.23 gears, and 25-26 inch tires are what I think I am going to get. The gearing may change depending on how I feel it does with the OD in the brick shape. I have a 390 Holley I could use its good parts off of to make a excellent 390 if need be. Or go with my Edelbrock Q-jet with electric choke. I just like the ease of which I can tune a Holley |

Re: Holley spread bore
I ran a 6210 on a 350 CID SBC and loved it, but because it's a mechanical secondary double pumper carb, it can really feed the gas with a heavy right foot. Maybe not the best choice for a heavy vehicle like a van used for daily driving duties, but it won't be terrible.

I couldn't agree more.
