why a 950 carb over an 850?thanks mike





a 950 generally moves air easier/ more air speed/velocity than an 850, and is better suited to a smallblock.Most anybody you talk to will say a standard 950 has better street manners than a standard 850 does.

I cant say as i personally know of a single guy who runs an 850 around these parts on any smallblock i am aware of.

Lots of 750, 950 and dominators, but no 850's i am aware of.


A few years back Patrick at pro systems gave me three carbs to test on my old w5 stroker motor. A 750, a 1000hp, and a dominator.The 1000 i believe was 950 based.
