Well you could but it sounds to me like the floats are set incorrectly or there is junk in the seats. I believe if you fix that problem you will find the car to run acceptably.
And for the record I ran my poly with a factory 4bbl intake and exhaust manifolds. I did have dual exhaust. And I used a 800cfm avs factory 440 carb. Gary P sold to me. I never changed any settings. Well I did then put it back the way it was. With ethanol
in today’s fuel bigger jets made the care run the best. In fact. When I wheel dyno’d the car the technician made a remark that I had the car tuned as near perfect as he had ever seen a carbureted vehicle. I laughed and said ok. little did he know I just
installed a 440 big block carb on a measly 318. Hahahaha. You could smash the throttle at 1500 and not a hiccup or a stutter. Made 278 horses at the rear wheels. I got the carb back after joey Lemire ( guy who bought my car) decided to pull the engine
in favor of a hot 340. So ultimately it went back on a 440 that I drive now. I detest it on this motor. I have richened it and messed with it and come to the conclusion I got lucky putting on the 318 so I’m building a 2x4 thermoquad intake for the 440.
I’m sure my comments I’m about to make will not be popular but…. I think a thermoquad would be perfect on a poly. The small primary’s would give good driving manners and
when you “can it” the poly head motors will eat it like mad. Thing with a TQ is you can’t ease into the secondary’s. You either smash it or drive on the primary’s.
Well enough from me.
Thanks
Jason

Subject: RE: 318 Poly Fuel pump
Well in the light of day I see it is a fuel issue – too much fuel. If I floor it while cranking to try and clear the flooded condition it tries to fire but then after 4-5 seconds
gas starts pumping up on top of the carb by the primary butterfly and flowing over the side. Carb issue of some kind. 5 year old Edelbrock 1406 (600 cfm).
Wondering if the 1403 (500 cfm) would not be a better choice. Seriously the stock Poly puts out a whopping 230 hp – and ran just fine on a puny 2 bbl carb back in the day. Not to
mention I drive like a granny anyway – can’t remember the last time I opened the secondaries.......... ; )

I just looked and I don't have it. Probably just as well.

I wonder if I have my original stock pump? If I do it's been sitting since about 2005. You're welcome to it if I can find it.

Thanks – Looks like the Carter is unubtainium now. Thinking maybe the Edelbrock 1720 pump would be a good idea – and a match
to my carb and fuel filter..........
Rick,
I'm running a Carter, made by Federal Mogul. I've had it in service since 2010 on my Poly stroker.

Are there many choices when it comes to stock fuel pumps?
