I just added a new carb to my truck and it runs excellent. I am truly impressed by Performance Carburetors stage 3 carb. Its a 1000 cfm Holley Hp series with spring loaded needles and seats, manifold referenced power valve. I was struggling to get my 670 truck avenger to preform even with hours of tinkering. Now with the bigger carb the truck gets squirrely at wot. It has terrible body bounce. I am looking at Helliwig's sway bars for 67-72 k-10. Has anyone else added this to their rig.

Here is also the forumula for calculating cfm for a forced induction motor.

(CID x RPM) ÷ 3456} x {Boost ÷ 14.7) + 1} = CFM required.

431 x 5500=2370500/3456=685.908 x( 5/14.7=.476190+1)=919.2 cfm
