I was planning to buy a Holley Street Avenger carburetor, but then I acquired a Holley Truck Avenger in a trade. Besides the obvious off-road capabilities, is there any difference between the Holley Street Avenger and the Holley Truck Avenger? I mean, are they two totally DIFFERENT carburetors, or is the Truck Avenger basically a Street Avenger with extra off-road features? If I were to run a Street Avenger, and then run a Truck Avenger in the same size, would I notice a difference in performance on the STREET? Can the Truck Avenger run as good on the street as the Street Avenger?
