I ended up w/90`s in the ft. w/a 3.5 pv and 99`s in the rear on my hp 1050 8082-3 dommy and it was chassis dynoed and has gone faster than ever this way. I usually jet down 8-10 sizes when using a pv.

A lot depend's on what your power valve channel restricter is in your metering block, mine were .082 and I ended up jetting way down in the front, because when the PV opens the jet size and PVCR are added together to give you the fuel that the motor see's, seem's like I jetted down about 13 size's in the front when I put the PV in,,,B1KEN had a chart that showed the fuel flow of the jet's and a formula that did the same for the PVCR,I have stuck to that info and it has worked good for me,,,,as far as a vac gauge I drilled and tapped a hole and added a fitting to the spacer under my carb.

I have a port on my adapter/spacer that I hook a gauge up to although w/ big cams, a 2.5-3.5 gets the job done.

I just took my intake vacuum, divided by 2 and there was my PV number. This is what I was told to do by 2 old time guys, not sure if its true but its worked so far.

I`ve heard about the divide your total vac in half theory also and who knows. For the longest time I ran a 2.5 but was told they can actually shudder off and on(open and closed)so I installed the 3.5 but can`t say for sure if it helped or not. If it`s a race deal and lets say you have 6" in gear I would run a 3.5 or a 4.5 myself. Then there`s the economy tuning but who needs that.

Intake vacuum divided by 2 should work fine. If the idle vacuum is higher than 12 inches then use a 6.5.

Why not put a vac gauge on it and map where it is during cruise and wot then you can put in a pv with a lit lower rate to stay shut until you need it?
