Carb dyno testing
« on: April 09, 2016, 09:13:07 PM »
Hey Jay, have you done, or anyone else done, dyno testing on just carbs to see the difference?  Like do a 750 cfm test of Holley, Summit Racing, Demon, Quick Fuel, and Edelbrock 750 cfm carbs?  Maybe throw in a Cobra Jet Holley 735 cfm and see how that does too?

There are some carb comparisons in my intake comparo book, but I think only four carbs (one was a three barrel).  Haven't really done much other than that.  It would be an interesting test to check several different carbs of the same cfm rating (or claimed cfm rating).
