There is no quick fix for HP for the Raider unless you go turbo. Everything else is a solution looking for a problem <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cyclops.gif" alt="" />


Ditto. If you're looking for an increase in HP on a 2.6 that'll matter to you, read over the TURBO CONVERSION Bible. I'm more than satisfied with my 2.6 (non-turbo), but that's only because I re-geared my diffs (not cheap).

ok thank you now i just need to know if i can put a holly 650,750,850 or 950 on it to add more hp


Yes you can...so long as your also putting a 305, 350 or 400 cubic inch V8 engine under that same carb. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Seriously though, I think if you get a rebuilt Mikuni (as Cap'n posted a link above) or a Weber, you'll find the little 2.6L will move the Raider along fairly well (I don't win any drag races, but I can maintain 85mph with no trouble...other than keeping her pointed straight down the road from side winds <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> ). If you're just looking for more power, then as other's have posted, the Turbo bible or search the forum for the 4.3L V6 swaps done by other members.
