The car is pictured with two DCOE 40's. .
Seems that it would be over carbed unless he is only using the inside of
each carb in order to get a straight in flow through the manifold?
I am always curious about this over carb thing as years ago I over carbed a
small block Chevy that I built. The engine would have run better if I had
left the Rochester single on it with the original manifold. . but not me. .
I put a 750 double pumper on the thing not knowing at the time what the heck
I was doing. I went back to a 650. . which was more in line with what the
engine was able to handle.
I have yet another question. We have a late model PT Cruiser with a turbo
(wife's car. . I don't like the car. . but it is her thing).
How is it that a turbo can push added air and fuel into the engine when it
comes into boost mode and not over produce too much air and fuel flow for a
small engine. . while at the same time if one were to install a carb that
was too big, the engine performance would suffer?
Obviously there is something about how an engine accepts the added boost
from a turbo or a super charger that is different compared to installing a
carb that would be too big?
