Bill with old man’s garage could help you out. He’s building a twin turbo blow through carburetor small block right now he’s a wizard with carburetors he hates fuel injection. He’s the perfect guy for you.

[@ericaichinger4768]

Was thinking same

[@jeffjankiewicz5100]

True, Bill knows his carbs, n/a or blow thru, doesn`t matter. Big fan of the family.

[@danielhigley8543]

You absolutely beat me to this comment! Bill is the man when it comes to blow through tuning.

[@chronicburful]

I was going to suggest Bill, too. His son Billy's S-10 was a small block, twin turbo with a blow through carburetor for years, and it was fast. Bill is a wizard with a carburetor, and he has a close relationship with ATM carburetor company.

I've wanted to run Bonneville since I was a kid and now I'm 45 and trying to figure out what class or classes I wanna run, I think I've got the car chosen but holy moly is there a bunch of classes and a BIG OL rule book. Can't wait to get started. Good luck y'all

[@michaelmerrill589]

Yes you have to run a boost reference regulator with blow thru carburetor I run a CSU 850cfm on my 427ci SBC that is procharged but I run a MSD 6AL programmable with a msd 3 bar map sensor.

[@michaelallen434]

Watching NHRA and this at the same time. It’s a good day! I hope to see Alex running in a pro class soon🤞

[@darrylsmith7915]

Keith is truly an awesome guy!!

[@jbuch66koop]

You definitely want a boost reference fuel pressure regulator. Regardless, if you're using the box or not. When using the smaller hat. You need to add extensions onto your bowl vents, and bent them over, so they are facing the incoming air. Make sure you get your reference from, on top of the carb, not under it. But the blow off valve, needs to be referenced from under the carb, being that's where the vacuum will form first, giving your BOV, the best response time.

[@allenwilliams87]

That is a very very special iconic car with legendary owners. No doubt this is the most recognizable salt flat car in modern history. A opportunity of a lifetime, congratulations

[@glamiskid50]

I’m so stoked for you, Alex. That’s a good car and between those two old guys you got this

[@PiDsPagePrototypes]

Perfect Caster effects explanation there. Shopping carts have negative caster, Choppers have positive caster. Positive Caster is essential to 'self-centering'.

[@ZIPCORD]

That was my understanding regarding shopping carts too. But then I was corrected by someone wiser than me. A shopping cart front wheel has "slip" where the pivot point is not inclined but the wheel is offset set rearward (or could be forward) of the non-inclined pivot. For it to have caster the pivoting bolt holding the front wheel stirrup would have to be inclined. A bicycle fork has slip too when the fork curves forward. But the pivot of the fork below the handlebars (inclined rearward at the top) also has caster too. Most children's tricycles have slip, but no caster and as such they don't (typically) self center.

[@PiDsPagePrototypes]

@@ZIPCORD The 'Shopping Cart" explantation is the easiest to give, and most commonly used, when explaing to non-engineers, because they've seen how shopping carts wander all over the place, especially over any bump in the floor.

[@NorthernHDrider]

Your commentary & your dad's is awesome. Gotta speak about your talk about caster. First road bike I rode for many miles, was a 9 1/2' chopper ridged frame with 47° rake. Riding was riding the 250 rear tire, with 150hp went straight but corners were awesome the more throttle the tighter it went. Was mint, now ride comfy couch 2010 Road king. 😀 Small block from Summit is gonna be mint.

[@stevetraina55]

Dennis/Alex, I recently converted a blow through carb (CSU) to EFI for drag and drive and other applications. It has a dominator base and was on a 555 with an F3-131 Procharger. Probably needs to be rebuilt, but I will donate to the project. If interested, I can provide details

A shakedown run at an asphalt airforce runway prior to running on the salt to get some idea for the tune?.

[@9rjharper]

Find a long road, put it in a lower gear so you’re not going as fast, and pull two parachuted to approximate the drag and load at higher speeds. Get close on tuning. Make minor adjustments based on what your weather station says and approximated differences in low speed parachute testing. Profit.
