He knows the most. I used to have a Paxton set up on '66 GT-350 but I don't recall the carb jets I used. As for the distributor, I didn't have to retard the timing at all from stock specs. The older Paxtons didn't really put out that much boost in comparison to the modern units. I did have a problem with the carb flooding on occasion. Z.

kahmann Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 i am installing a paxton sn-60 (older but very nice polished unit) on my small block 289 engine (mild cam and mild headwork) and was just curious about carb specs for running a paxton. i got my brackets and fuel pump from craig over at paradise. i just was wondering what the best carb and distributor setup would be for this.thanks for any help I've been considering the same route. I raced with a 67 GT-350 a week and a half ago at Thunderhill. He had the Paxton installed and it sounded and seemed to run great. It's definitely a unique setup and one that I'd like more info on. Anyone on TS with any insight? Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
