Post subject:  Jet size for single barrel Holly carb

I have a stock single barrel Holly carb on my 71 Dart with Slant 6.
I did a 30 over bore and RV cam. What size Jet do you recommend
to replace the stock jet with?

Any advice will be appreciated.

Post subject:  What Holley?

There were 2 different Holley 1 barrels available...

The original Holley 1920 for your car with the front hung float bowl would do great with a #57 or #58...

If it's a later Holley 1945 with the dual floats inside the carb body...install a #61 and reset all the linkage per the rebuild kit instructions as a 1976 Car.

I agree with the 57 58 size jets for the fron hung float holley. I run bigger but here in Bristol tn. with headers and good exhaust it likes it.

For a little more consistent economy I run a #56 with 2.5" exhaust. It bumps the mileage on short 4 to 8 mile hops from 20 to 22.5 mpg. On trips it jumps way up there.....25 mpg plus if I don't drive too aggressively!
That is comparing it to a #57.
