Is the intake on the belair modded in a similar fashion? I'm not saying it can't be done. I just want to see how with a QJet. Hoping you document everything you do to make it work. I'm always hungry for more knowledge. I know guys with holleys stagger jet their carburetors when the plenum divider is cut down or removed. Count me in for regular updates.

Brian; The Belair is pretty much a Pure Stock car. Shut up Rhett. The intake is unmodified and the car never goes above 5800RPM but I still run a bit of stagger in the secondary metering rods. The new car I plan on winging up to 7000 and maybe beyond and there will be some chassis Dyno time to refine the proper stagger. |

Rhett and I will be over on the fourth to inspect and tech . Make sure you have a carb gasket and valve cover gaskets ready to go . I am sure it WON'T pass
