Carb recommendations / fit

[Challenger RTA]

TQs were/are good carbs.

They are a stroke of genius and easy to understand once you know them. I guess that's why some of the newer carbs look very reminiscent of the TQ. IMO there is the right carb for the right application.

Just bought 72 340 Cuda. Previous owner put undersized manual choke Edelbrock AVS carb. DIdn't hook up the choke. Add on chock kinda pricey so thinking about just swapping whole carb out.

Is anyone running a Demon with stock intake and especially stock air cleaner? Want to stick with stock air cleaner and intake. Considering just getting a larger AVS with electric choke (which I know air cleaner will fit) but Demon looks attractive as well.

Thanks

I'm running a Street Demon on my 73 340 Challenger that was installed on the factory intake by the previous owner. While it drove okay, I was having issues with strong fuel odors forcing me to drive with the windows up and AC on. In addition, it had a serious bog when transitioning to the secondaries. I just had an old school carburetor guy help me with adjustments and after adjusting the idle bleed, and the flap on the secondaries, you'd think the car is fuel injected. The throttle response is crisp throughout the entire range, and the fuel smell is gone. First time I got on it after the adjustments, it smoked the tires and pulled hard through all 4 gears with no bog between shifts.
