<DIV>Are you talkin' to me? I am Dirty and Grouchy - don't forget
it.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Here are my impressions of the carb situation, with all due respect:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Nuytten thinks Asa is asking for a top end racing carb and still wants his
22mpg (can't blame him for that). Can this be done?
maybe. I would say (in a perfect sponsored world) get a cab that will
perform and deliver top end - then, if not satisfied get a carb for around town
use.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Nuytten also says "<FONT color=#1f497d>A vacuum carburetor is a good choice
if you only want fuel economy but you are not going to be happy with that
carburetor when you want to go racing. "</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>My experience is this: the truck has an expensive designer carb - never
worked for beans without a lot of love; V8 Miata - summit carb w/ four corner
idle and replaceable air bleeds, it ran great at sea level and needed a lot of
love up here (6600'); Pantera has a vacuum secondary 750 - runs a little fluffy
up here and great at the ORR/track days I have attended. So, vacuum no
good? I would say this is wrong.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My $.02 worth, fwiw.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Have fun, stay warm.</DIV>

<DIV>Hi gang,<BR><BR>As I continue my edumacation bout cars and stuff.... I
wrote Chuck again asking about the option of a vacuum secondary carb instead
of a double-pumper as he originally recommended. He was candid in his
response and I take it with the same grain of salt I try most things
with. You can read the trail below.<BR><BR>I also talked with our friend
Bud Hower, who sent photos and specs of his carb. His Holley is nearly
identical to mine, though it may not be an "emissions" model, and he gets 130
top end without a problem and maybe more. That may simply mean mine
being an emissions carb might be channeled and jet differently... for fuel
economy and not top end.<BR><BR>Note, I'm not spending any more yet, I'm still
investigating.<BR>Asa Jay<BR><BR>-------- Original Message --------

<DIV class=yiv2527249032MsoNormal> </DIV>
<DIV class=yiv2527249032MsoNormal>Thank you for the recommendation.
Based on the fact I don't race the car all the time and in fact drive it more
as an around-town car until open road race season, I would think a vacuum
secondary would be better for fuel economy. Presently I get nearly 22
MPG on the highway, which is nice; when racing, it doesn't really matter as
long as enough fuel is being metered to the engine. However, during the
SSCC this year I felt the carb was leaning out and perhaps even starving the
engine at high rpm, which is why I'm investigating a new carb.<BR><BR>Do you
work with vacuum secondary carbs and what is your opinion of them?<BR>Thank
you,<BR>Asa Jay<BR><BR></DIV><PRE>Asa Jay Laughton, MSgt, USAFR, Retired</PRE><PRE>& Shelley Marie</PRE><PRE>Spokane, WA</PRE><PRE>****************************** </PRE><PRE><A href="http://www.racingagainstautism.com/" rel=nofollow target=_blank>http://www.racingagainstautism.com</A></PRE><PRE><A href="http://www.teampanteraracing.com/" rel=nofollow target=_blank>http://www.teampanteraracing.com</A></PRE><PRE><A href="http://facebook.com/racingagainstautism" rel=nofollow target=_blank>http://facebook.com/racingagainstautism</A></PRE>
