Post holley carb tuning
Hi everyone !

It's been a wile since I have this annoying problem with my 4160 VS 750 Holly carb electric choke
When getting to stop and getting the tranny to neutral the engine revs up to about 1400rpm and I need each time to hit the gas to lower back to about 950 rpm, only when the engine is really hot then it's back to normal but that means running on the highway for a long time.. So It looks like somekind of choke symptom ?

Thanks

everything is lowered to the minimum, I mean choke cap all to the right to lean and choke idle screw all the way out! Maybe it's just normal when outside temperature is still around those 0 these days the morning but annoying still , sounds taking forever to get in temperature ( aluminium heads would probably put the motor in temperature faster.)

Actually I think it would be the opposite effect with aluminum heads as they would dissipate heat faster?
