To much carb?
The car I just bought has a Quick Fuel Technologies 950cfm carb on it. The part# is a Q950 and according to the website this is a drag race carb. I havent ran the car much since bringing it home, since it was cold and I tore the interior out to restore as soon as it was in the garage. The car starts right up but I noticed yesterday as I let it sit outside and warm up to burn the moisture out of the exhaust that it smells REALLY rich at idle! The car isnt missing or fouling plugs, its a 454 bored over .30 with 9.5:1 compression pistons, 781 heads with 2.19 and 1.88 valves, manley valve springs and some mild port work. 565 lift cam. The intake I do believe is a Torker. The car seems like it runs well but the fuel smell is almost unbearable! Can I "detune" this carbs idle setup enough or am I better off pulling it off the motor and finding a more "streetable" carb?
