I have a set if 800 E-AFB's and have been 9.90's with them. They are not as quick as my Competition Series AFB 750's but run good. On the street they idle well, mid throttle cruise is good. I take any new carb apart and clean it before I put it on anything. Have seen trash and mismatched jets in all of them from Holley', BG's, Quickfuel and E carbs. These carbs get a bad rap but I think allot of time it's the tuning. These carbs are sensitive to fuel pressure. I only run 5lbs. They are probably one of the easiest carbs to tune.
