We bolted on a 4150 Quickfuel 950 to replace the Rupert 4500 1050 we had been running. We were actually trying to slow the car down a little because we were creeping up on the limits of our chassis cert.
The car ran the exact same ET and MPH with the 950 as it did with the 1050. The Quickfuel was spot on out of the box and only needed idle mixture and speed adjustments. I am happy with the Quickfuel carb Where you able to jet the bigger carb rich enough to slow the MPH down in the 1/4 mile? If so did you do the same tuning on the smaller carb? Which motor and heads was this on? I'm thinking of switching from E85 to straight Methanol also

Sorry, I’ve never used an alcohol carb. But! Thanks for that link! I started bracket racing in 1978, and the guys in that article were known to me in Minneapolis. I bet not many know what a device marketed by Ron Folk, known as “The Throttle Wacker”, is. Rupert was certainly in hitter company.

I have an SV1 also, and it works great and Patrick was accessible and always knew what to do. Have 2 of his gasoline ones also. I had a 1050 alcohol carb done by a fellow in Wisconsin, but it was a POS.
