Default Re: 4053/4346 Holley

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Keith Tedford</div><div class="ubbcode-body">The 4346 is a 780 cfm carb but could be any number depending on how you measure the flow.

That rings a bell...like a dyno or any other measuring device, for carbs there are different correction factors, wet vs dry ratings, inches of Mercury (4bbl carbs were measured different than 2 bbl)...I wonder if Holley's SAE factor was the same as GM's?
