I know that most people say that you should use a VS carb with an Automatic, but I have heard, and seen, great things with a holley DP carb. Your guys' expert opinion is wanted. The choice is between a street avenger and a DP.

If you do any bracket racing, you really should go DP. All you need to do is size it so it won't bog at the minimum WOT RPMs you'll be running (read: stall speed). Holley has a chart on the website for that purpose.

Look at Holley street avenger. DP AND vacuum secondaries. And large economy size is 770 CFM.

All Street Avengers are vacuum secondary.

Unless you have info to the contrary. Feel free to post URL's to that effect.
