Q-jet secondary metering rod question

[Everett Vassar]

We are still struggling with the transition from Holley to QJ. At dallas the EGT logger recorded 1544 deg which I thought was lean. I pulled the rods and went to see Mr Braswell. He handed us a pair about 4 sizes smaller and said go try these. Did not improve E.T. did not drop EGT either. But Dustin said the car was acting a little stubborn starting and cruising to the lanes. I noticed he was struggling with staging.apparently some fuel was getting past the rods.. so the old rods went back in. I should have our other Qjet back from Deano this week
