Whats the advantage of running a holley double dumper, or avenger over a regular 600 cfm 4160 carb. How much power difference is ther in power, which is better, how bad will gas mileage suffer?

if you have a idea of what you are doing don't get the street avenger. When I first got it It was great....out of the box tuning was on the money but you can build your own cheaper with new holley parts and save 100.00 I will next time.

I like the DP for the 4 corner idle but its not that good with a auto, however that is not to say you would not have success runing it on a auto. Gas milage will be better on any Vac. secondary carb.
