Tom,

Thanks for the input. A few more questions for you:

Are you referring to the linkage I'm using on my SBC system, or the factory style linkage? We've got a progressive system that allows you to drive off of the center carburetor, and then brings in the outer carbs later like a mechanical secondary carburetor. It makes for a really nice driving system.

Putting center hung bowls on the carburetors actually makes the fuel rail much more cumbersome, and puts it in the way of tuning vs. the single high side rail like we’re doing on our other systems.

The idle circuitry on the outer carburetors will be reduced, and set up like a vacuum secondary carburetor volume wise. We already use really thick butterflies in the outer carbs to make sure they seal properly.

Do you have any baseline power numbers from an original or modified Pontiac Tri-Power to a decent single 4bl on a street engine? I’ve got some numbers from a few engine builders, but would like to hear what other people are seeing.

Thanks again for the feedback.
