Edelbrock VRS 4150 on a Slant Six...... Is This the Greatest Carb Ever?????

[@MuscleCarSolutions]

Nice first start! Eager to follow along with the tuning! VRS for the WIN!

[@SlantDailyGarage]

I agree..... for the win. I really was in shock how bitchen it worked right off the bat.

[@MuscleCarSolutions]

@@SlantDailyGarage I see a day at the track for some test and tune coming soon!

[@Dr.Frankenstein65]

Is an AVS2 booster swap possible?

[@MuscleCarSolutions]

@@Dr.Frankenstein65 no.

[@SlantDailyGarage]

@@Dr.Frankenstein65 Yes 100% going to try that also.

[@BareRoseGarage]

It's not a Holley knock off, it's what's going to knock Holley Off the Pedestal!!!!

[@SlantDailyGarage]

That is the best description for it i have heard so far. My race car "Cookie Monster" has a quick fuel 950 cfm on it..... or should I say had? I will be using one of these from now on.

[@yamahaguy1732]

I don’t know how taking an already existing design and making it better and making it yours is a knock off. Holley fanboys say some stupid sht

[@jayarnold8883]

I can't believe that the motor swallowed all of that accelerator pump ! Good stuff.

[@SlantDailyGarage]

RIGHT, That was why I was laughing when I saw the pump shot.

[@doublenickel1000]

Fun stuff. Boy does that Chrysler run nice with the Edelbrock. I once put a Weber 2 barrel on my old beater Datsun that had a 1 barrel and the same thing happened. I was stunned.

[@scottbrown321]

Are you kidding me? Wow, I don't have words.

[@barryismygod]

It’s sounds like a European straight six powered sports car now

[@killingcursivekustoms]

I'm impressed that all your gauges work! Nice work man

[@SlantDailyGarage]

Thanks. Yeah, i have a video in the Lizard King playlist that shows how I did it.

[@billsanders3604]

Awesome! Love the slant six. What Cam are you running? Sounds great! I couldn’t buy a good one barrel. May switch to this set up. Post more videos.

[@SlantDailyGarage]

I designed the cam. The specs are 217/217 on a 106 LSA installed 104 ICL. 0.487"/0.487" If memory serves me correctly

[@moseschickenwater5861]

Runs perfectly!

[@wsbill14224]

Good video. It makes sense the carb settings work good out of the box is because the slant 6 doesn't put big demands on it.

[@UnityMotorSportsGarage]

Oh I'm so excited.... That was awesome! "I thought it was going to be a train wreck" priceless

[@williamhenderson2661]

Pretty damn cool

[@claytonstoolbox]

I need one of those! lol

[@scottday8]

Need more input!!!!😂 I don’t even know what that carb is and my mind is blown

[@seanbrosnan2074]

Really great carburetor, Edelbrock knocked it out of the ball park. I wish it had a choke option though.

[@job1bf]

how are the cold starts in the winter? considering this one but was wondering how life would be in the winter without a choke. my weather is the same as yours...same town!

[@SlantDailyGarage]

It is no proplem. Its like all carbs... pump twice and start. Hold to 1500 rpm for a minute and then go.

[@tonycolca2241]

The slant 6 was actually advanced talk about 6 cylinder lawn mower engine 216 chevy with babbited rods rod caps had dipper hooks to dip into oil in small troughs in the oil pan. But for years it was the only engine chevy offered and outsold ford many of those years. They were easier and cheaper to work on. I like your video down to earth. Thanks

[@64sweptline]

How do you like those headers? Considering getting a set for my ‘64 Dodge D100.

[@SlantDailyGarage]

They work bitchen.

[@marshahostetter3624]

How much compression gain do I get with.09/ off head

[@israelicarnut3282]

Could I pop one of these on a stock slant 6?? I saw inthe comments you have a cam

[@jonathanlucasknight1773]

I have a Dodge d150 with a slant 6 225 in it I was thinking of switching it to a four barrel cuz I don't have no power on the top end and I also need a RPM gauge I don't have one

[@keithcalitri840]

Thanks for that video now I don’t even have to think about what my next carb is gonna be. Thanks Super Shane Richardson….

[@zAvAvAz]

Should i get a VRS or a dominator style? Here is the engine i am planning to build = 393 c.i. 10.5:1 XR288HR on 106, Project X215 heads. It is a custom 3.83" stroke inside a stock deck height block 9.025" exactly.

[@SlantDailyGarage]

The VRS Carburetor is a way more versatile than the dominator. Plus the VRS can be used on the 4500 bolt pattern. The VRS is everything the dominator wants to be.

[@Ogre302]

My question lies, I have cowl induction with the seal and all of that jazz, and the seal is pretty tight. I hear these are taller, so I wouldn't have room. Does the air filter sit at the same height while the barrels are elevated?

[@SlantDailyGarage]

It is about 3.750" from the base gasket to the flange for the air cleaner. What carb do you have so I can better answer your question.

[@Ogre302]

@SlantDailyGarage It's a FAST EZ efi, which is identical dimensionally to a 4150.

[@jonnyc4898]

If my straight 6 behaved that way, I would be real happy lol

[@george6264]

Is t that over carburation on a slant 6 I’ve been trying to decide four or two barrel

[@joecarolynowen8617]

One might think that this gem of a carb is over-carbureting the 225 ci 6, but I had a '65 Chevy Corvair that got pickles, mustard, and onions for auto-crossing. I had the original heads taken off and machined for a Weber 46 IDA-3C on each head!! The 46 designation was the choke diameter in mm of each barrel and with one barrel per cylinder sitting about 3" above the inlet valves, the throttle response was terrific! The CFM translated to 300CFM per barrel, so about 900 CFM per carb. They actually were taken off the Porsche 908 Carrera from the early race cars! Lotsa guys put a center-mounted Holley 390 CFM 4-barrel carb with the 4-tube tarantula intake manifold. Nice but not a lot of throttle response. So 650 CFM feeding a thirsty long-stroke 6-banger - no problem, as you could hear!! Nice job on the build. Son has a 1982 D150 with the Slant-6 needing driven after his repair of a blown head gasket. Might have a tight piston skirt after replacing one of them due to burnt upper ring land. Suspect tight wrist pin. Might clear up after running - produces a loud piston slap sound!

[@joeystrains.9316]

I'm losing my mind! Would be my words. No issues.

[@Dr.Frankenstein65]

Edelbrock for the win !🏁

[@JeffKopis]

I must admit, I NEVER thought that I would ADMIRE a GREEN, 4 DR, SLANT 6 '68 Dart! I was right, of course 😂.

[@SlantDailyGarage]

Well good because mine is a 1969 dart. Ha ha ha.🤣

[@joecarolynowen8617]

@@SlantDailyGarage That's called a "Sleeper" where I came from in Peoria, Ill.

[@user-1972Nova]

If only I could afford one.

[@marshahostetter3624]

What CFM was it

[@SlantDailyGarage]

650 CFM

[@Sir.AdamsVIII]

Holy crap your natural laugh is literally the jokers 🤣 extremely jealous .. but anyway, do you have a video installing your lokars

[@NathansMoparGarage]

Very cool

[@AnthonysResurrectionGarage]

That awesome

[@johnlemme1603]

nice real nice!

[@tonysnow7900]

Love your videos but how dare you call the leaning tower of power a harbor freight engine 😂

[@SlantDailyGarage]

I know... but it really is about the same power density as one of those engines. How about I call it a Briggs and Stratton engine 🤔

[@possumpopper89]

That fuel line sitting above the exhaust is gonna create issues.

[@SlantDailyGarage]

It is the lesser of the evils.

[@cuzz63]

Killswitch cracks me up..seems the most valuable part of the car is that carb...lol

[@fabiankunzi2702]

Hola no es muy grande el carburador para la cilindrada de el auto

[@bigsea1306]

Dang the carburetor is worth more than the car

[@garrymcgaw4745]

The engine is over carbaretted..to many CFM's

[@SlantDailyGarage]

That is the whole point.

[@JorgePalomo-u2u]

Ok

[@ProSimex84]

You seem disappointed you're expensive carb works properly.

[@SlantDailyGarage]

Shocked 😲.... not disappointed

[@silkysixx]

Not so much a design triumph (though it is lovely) as a product manager who knows his stuff specifying very clever factory settings. You can set any carb just a little fat, wind the idle up just a little fast, and put gigantor accelerator pumps in it and you will have a very satisfactory first run. Fuel consumption will be atrocious, but that's what's known as a warm welcome to Holley life, so Edelbrock can get away with it in this case.

[@JeffKopis]

You just keep practicing, bud, and SOMEDAY you'll be good at this shit 🤣

[@copisetic1104]

Abnoxious

[@SlantDailyGarage]

Thank you for watching.

[@TheRoguelement]

Hey Car guy... I was wondering if you were going to let us all in on how Big this is ?????? Like in CFM ?????? And by the way .. your a funny guy .. no return spring why because you were all amped up like some child ..

[@SlantDailyGarage]

650 cfm. It is the smallest one we have. Yes i was all amped up. ha ha ha big kid
