I have a 355 alum hds and manifold and 750 dual pumper holly with a 350 turbo and 392 gears. My car is fast but on the pedal when i push down i can not turn my tires. The carb is set up i hope and my fuel should be enough to turn them i feel but woo to me it does not so i would like some advice on my problem thanks

a lot more info is needed...  tire sizing..

cam specs..

how much advance you have in the distributer..

carb set up...  primary jetting.. secondary jetting..  primary discharge shooter.. secondary discharge shooter.. which color pump cams.. screw hole A or ***

stall speed of the torque converter..

you probably need more converter with that size of carb..

or you have nice wide tires.. that grip well..

spinning the tires is NOT what you want to ***    you want the tires to grip the pavement and accelerate you forward without slipping..

Thanks for your reply I will have to get some info from the person that built the engine. All I can say for now is that I have a 3000 stall andm the cam is a race ready cam it does lope at 1700 and as for the jetting and others it has not been done.
