[Roadsters] Porting, Polishing, Squish, Quench, and Turbulence.

[chalsted]

one of my race roadsters has a BRE prepared engine which has what they 
called "1 1/2 bbl carbs"  which were ported out from the slide under the 
dome to the outer face of the carb in such a manner that they basically had 
an internal velocity stack- they ported them out almost to the bolt holes 
for the air cleaner... flowed darn close to as much air as Solexes but 
didn't have to go to C Production as the Solex cars were required to do, 
could still run D Production. doesn't seem it would be that difficult of a 
modification...the other race roadster was in the National runoffs 3x and 
according to the guy who used to race it was the lightest race 2000 Bob 
Sharp ever weighed in including the "salt damaged" cars (lightweights)... 
they're "available" if anyone's looking for such... ;-)
