I told my friend what a big boost in power one can get from a stock motor with a bug spray carb on a bus with single port heads!! 8)
You can get new floats here: http://www.parts123.com/parts123/yb.dll ... e~cadegdha

Look under Holley 94 parts.

I was running a 300 cfm with an Edelbrock manifold back in the early 70's with great performance. Then again here in coastal San Diego we luckily don't get the cold / damp conditions that would have caused icing.
I thought Holley also made a buggyspray ( not bugspray) for off road applications. Yes , no maybe ?

Preheat...modify your manifold as I did my Zenith. It only took a few hours to go from this:

To this:

And finally this:

You can also direct post-cylinder air into the air intake.
