    Default VH carby upgrade? Holley? Webber?

    Hi there I have a 202 VH Slx sedan all in all its in quite good condition could do with a respray but its good enought. I have a Holley 350 to upgrade the carby and some genie extractors. I want to keep the economy of the varajet but get a bit better flow. So anyone reccomend anything other then the 350? Ive heard of people using the Webbers out of XF carby falcons. Cheers

    I don't believe there is much to gain on a stock motor between varajet and the 350 holley. Webbers and holley are prone to stuffing up if you muck around with them and don't know what your doing. If your willing to spend money on them and get them tuned properly it might be worth doing. It might be worth getting a better manifold to match them.

    lol put a v6 in it then ya get power and economy..

    Ive heard the Holley 350 doesnt gain much more power. Ive worked at a carby mechanic for a couple ofr weeks so i can always get my carby rebuilt and tuned for free which I am going to do with the varajet soon enough or another carby for it.
