Typically if you had a .015" High Speed Air Bleed in the 4 positions (Primary and Secondary), you would have the same .015" High Speed Air Bleed in the 4 positions (Primary and Secondary) on a E-85 Carb.

If you had #92 Main Jets in all 4 Corners of the carb with Gas you would also have #92 Main Jets in all 4 positions (Primary and Secondary) on a E-85 Carb.

Now the Idle Air Bleeds are typically .070" on a 850 Holley Gas Carb and they might be in the mid 50s range on a E-85 Carb.

And with a High HP E-85 Carb the shooters could very well be in the .040"+ range to get the Accelerator Pump right.

With a E-85 Carb or a higher Boost Gas Carb you will need at least 4 Power Valve Channel Restrictions.

That being said, in 90 times out of 100 with a C&S carb you will be very close right out of the box on a typical Pontiac Engine with Boost. Dyno Testing is really the best way to dial in a carb for the Power side of it.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
