Stoveboltkid, My 1948 2 ton with a 235 has a 2 barrel Holley with fenton exhaust headers. I don't know the exact size of carb but it's the bigger size of 2 barrels. Regarding low end torque, there are a few instances (usually hard lugging in third gear) where the velocity of the air going through the carb isn't fast enough to draw in the fuel. Feathering the throttle back a little increases the velocity of air. But normal running through the gears, even heavily loaded, I don't have any problems.
My next carb will be a small four barrel. The primary's are smaller than the current 2 barrel I have now and that should take care of the air velocity issues.
Hope that helps, Paul.
