Carb(s)

To sum all this up, a carb depends on the vacuum signal to draw the fuel from the bowls into the venturis, the bigger the carb is, the less vacuum is there to feed the fuel to the venturis.

 

getting too deep for me when you start talking quantum physics I just can't follow anymore

a 600 cfm carb is all you need for most street apps, most carbs are very tuneable for most applications above stock, if you find ya need more carb, latter on, then go bigger, by the way, thanks for the trip through cyber space, keep it simple, gain knowledge, and have fun doin it

 

I'll be running a holley 2 bbl 500 cfm... though with lots of modifications to it haha

 

those carbs are great man, i had a lot of cars , different motors, with that carb, and ran great, very good power, and did not dig into the wallet,

 

hopefully it works for what i intend haha

what are ya bolting it onto ?

 

Just a 250 straight six but I've removed the chack ball, choke horn/choke, added a nitrophyl float and 6 an feed, drilled the pvcrs out with a #29 drill bit, tapped it to #8-32 ... and now im in the process of finding a numbered bit set so i can build power valve jets oh and im looking at building up the ring around the edge to make sure it holds boost

 

Amen to that on carbs, Ive got a cabinet full of carbs just like the misses with shoes

 

thats cool, i have lots of drill bits for special carb tweekin, hope it works good for ya,

 

E.F.I is the easy way out when you don't know how to adjust carbs. cost more but easy Go figure

 

maybe you should know what ya need before ya buy,

 

lol don't suppose I could find out where ya got them? I got lucky and found a #29 online cheap, but to make the jets ill need all of them from 50-40ish
