So I scored this set up the other day.normally I deal with turbos but for the price I got it for I decided to get it and try it out.
I'm trying to find out what size it is.from other picture comparisons it seems to be a 7"
Is the holley a good carb for this?or should I ditch it and get a different carb.guy who sold it to me said its a 550 holley.
Came pretty complete but I believe I might be missing something for the idler pulley,maybe a bracket.

Came with
Holley carb
Supercharger
13b oldschool 4 port intake
Main crank pulley
Water pump pulley
Alternator with pulley
Idler pulley
Oil filter adapter for oil feed
Air filter

All for $$$

 

Maybe you could check with Atkins Rotary, they offer Camden Kits, maybe they could help.

 

Atkins owns Camden.

 

The idler bracket and the bolt are probably all you need.

 

Thats not a 550 holley lol. Airhorn shape and vent tube type tell me its north of 600 cfm....

Prob a cheap junk 600 4160...

Try a 650 edelbrock AVS on it, but make sure its an AVS.

 

So if it is a 600cfm ...it's junk?
Can you explain why

 

It's not junk. But it is cheap and not tuneable (air bleeds are fixed). I have an Edelbrock 600 performer series on a Camden 5". Seems to work fine so far. Haven't really pushed it though.

 

I sense a name change to "Camden Dave"..lol!

 

^lol...not yet.my rx2 is turbo and will stay turbo ..this set up might be going into my repu but not anytime soon.

 

The 4160 600 holley is perhaps the cheapest, poorest casting ever built. Its a big zinc casted vacuum leak.

Yes, those are junk. By no means a "performance" carb. I throw 70% of one of those carbs in the garbage when im building one for an RX7...

 

So what carb and size you guys recommend ?
It's going in my repu.
Its 13b oldschool 4 port streetport block with s4 n/a rotating assembly.

 

Try this:

Demon 360° Product Pictures

Its a 625, AVS style anti-slosh fuel bowl "street carb"

Its a heavily modified/redesigned carter/edelbrock. Its a spreadbore carb on a square flange, and has metering rods.

It also has triple stack primary boosters like the nikki carb had (albeit for a reason )

Electric choke that can be used with a 30 dollar rheostat for proper choke operation, has overhead air bleeds that are easily converted to 8/32 changeable bleeds, and the fuel body is made of phenolic material like a thermoquad, so no boiling fuel. Ever.

Im using one on a half bridge project and its perfect. I think it would be more perfect for an open plenum supercharged build.

Also, thats a demon 1901 if you wanted the PN#

I also just noticed that holley you have pictured doesnt even have adjustable floats.

Thats literally a 200$ off the shelf napa holley carb haha

 

Checked the holley for list numbers and it is a 4160 style 600cfm holley.
I'm gonna look into that other carb you suggested.i have tried the demon carbs before but it was on a 68 mustang fastback I used to own and was like 10 years ago.

 

Nice find Dave! Interested to see how it performs on the Repu. I was initially interested in a supercharger but the price was too high to justify the expense, still toying around with a blowthrough setup

 

Yeah the price on these new is crazy.i only got it cause it was for a good price($500)for everything.
I was already going to supercharge the repu but a bit differently.
I was going to use a eaton m90 supercharger with efi and intercooler and microtech,but I can use this camden to get it running while I fabricate the other set up.not looking for crazy horsepower just something to get the truck up and moving a bit better than n/a.
We all know that turbo is where the real power is at.

 

I know a thing or 2
