Putting a Hilborn 2 7/16 on my 383 SBC in my front engine dragster. Got the intake on and im waiting on some parts to finish it and now I need some help. Ill post the engine info below,If I leave anything out im sorry.
Any science on stack length? I bought new ones and they are roughly 13" tall.
For drag racing..some use a high speed and some dont. I launch the engine from 3600-4200 depending on the weather and shift it at 6500. Most people ive spoke with say no high speed till i get it lined out then add it on. Thoughts??
No idea on what to start out with for pill sizes in the main...I will/can buy a assortment but need to know where to start.
HELP!!!!!

I'd call Hilborn,they were always generous to me when I had a problem,,,,? running alky or gas..whats the fuel flow rate of your pump?alky as just a guess0.65 main pill-hi speed 0.70 set to open at 58lbs...but thats based on 1.58 gpm pump -bigger pump-would mean bigger return pills....start the barrel valve setting at 25%....longer stacks more torque

I would call Hilborn. The guy I used to talk to was Gene Adams......... He used to run an injected rail on the strips..... was a really informative person. John S.
