Joe added and adjusted the bowls, machined off the air horns, installed .128 needle valves with steel tips and when everything was done, had the carb properly replated. The choke was also removed. This is the carb that Barry Rabotnick used to dyno my engine: Video: Survival Motorsports And 482 Cubic Inches Of FE Fury - EngineLabs
The HP & Torque numbers are higher now that we have improved fuel flow to the carb / engine. |
I would hope you have fuel bowl "whistles" fitted.
Those bowl vent tubes are bit short for my liking.
What depth air filter are you using?
Vent tubes can run at near 3/4 inch to the air filter lid.
The car is a work of art.
