Considering it costs 35 bucks to mill off an air horn of a 3310, and you get adjustable air bleeds and a very snappy looking main body with the ProForm, I think the 99 bucks is worth it. You are still using your Holley metering blocks and baseplate so the metering should be close (probably meter down a tad to compensate for the better air flow) As for their complete carbs, I would still go with a Demon.

I used one for my 3310 and have it on my 392 right now. It works great! I picked one up for the double pumper setup, and will be building a douple pumper shortly.

Have a buddy that put one in a DP for his drag rig and really likes it. Think I'll put one in my oval car carb. It's a DP also, cheap way to gain a few CFM!

And to Larry if your reading this your cuda sounds quite interesting with the old style Hemi 392 How does it run ETs??? Have a good one

Chitown, the engine is basically stock, just a 480 lift hyd. cam, shorty headers and a Hotheads single four intake with the Proform 3310. I get 13.50's from it at Tucson. The car weighs 3700 lbs with me in it, so I guess that's a decent time for it. I'm hoping the DP carb will speed it up a little. I'd like to get it to Phoenix sometime to see how it runs at a lower altitude. I picked up over 3 tenths in Tucson from my home track with 1100 ft. difference in altitude!
