Re: Quick Fuel Adjustable Vacuum Secondary Kit

Its a nice setup. Just bolt up and go for a drive. You will have to do some adjusting for your own setup, but once you get it fine tuned, your good to go.

Just a turn of a screw without all the spring swaps.

Re: Quick Fuel Adjustable Vacuum Secondary Kit

Any possible installation woes that I should be aware of (Holley with an electric choke)?

Re: Quick Fuel Adjustable Vacuum Secondary Kit

I wasnt running a choke when I had the 3310, so I cant comment on that. But the istall was just unbolt and hook up the linkage.

Im sure Quickfuel designed it to use with a choke, but you could always call and ask them.

Try calling them at (270) 793-0900‎. They are located in Bowling Green KY.

Close to Holley which posssibly owns Quick Fuel.

Holley doesn't own Quick Fuel Technologies. QFT and Proform have a close relationship, though.

Mine was the early model, which was a modified Holley housing rather than their nice billet piece now. I had an electric choke, it fit without problems.

I'd also suggest using the weakest spring available. The one that came with my adjustable housing was a medium spring. I had previously purchased a spring assortment, and found the weak spring worked very well with the adjustable housing.

Installation is no harder than changing the spring without a quick change lid.

Re: Quick Fuel Adjustable Vacuum Secondary Kit

I know this thread is old but I thought I would bump it. I just bought one of these and will be putting it on this evening. I went ahead and bought a spring kit based on five7kid saying he liked using the weakest spring.
