Rarely will I publically praise any one for their work or their parts unless the quality is at the level we strive for here at my shop.

The short story is I purchased a set of HEMI style carburetors from a company for my daughters HEMI Cuda convertible, dare I say the word “CLONE”, I just finished for her and they absolutely ran horrible. They refused to idol unless the car was hot no matter what I tried, granted, I’m pretty good when it comes to the pretty part of a restoration but no expert when it comes to a driveline. Not a complete tourist, not just that good. It is a complete stock 426 street HEMI, stock exhaust, intake, cam, bone stock.

Is it true a HEMI in a heated shop needs to run on fast idol for 10-15 minutes before it will stay running? That’s what I was told by the guy I bought the carbs from. Not to mention the RPM change up and down. Why can I get into my other bone stock HEMI car, 2 shots a gas and it starts right up and idols I asked? I had one of my very experienced motor head buddies come over and take a look and he had no clue without taking them completely apart to see what was done to them.

Scott hooked me up with a set of restoration carbs he does that looked beautiful, bolted them on and you’ll never guess what happened? The car ran perfectly! Without going into why the difference, I don’t care, they were bolted on and they worked perfectly for me without drama.

Don’t take this as a promotional post, it was my personal experience that cured some serious stress. I get really jammed up when my cars don’t run right.

Thx Scott for your help with this and hurry up with my original carbs I sent you to restore so I can get you the set from your competitor to look at.

Scott who? Oh, wait a minute, that is a Chinese guy...


The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

No, more like...."Scott say look like adult Lasiodora parahybana"


Mike,

Thank you for the glowing review, I'm glad to hear that the carbs met with your approval, it's always nice to get feedback, good or bad, it all helps towards offering a better product. Your second set of (real) Hemi carbs are now finished, they ran great on the mule engine, you should have no troubles with them. I'll ship them off Monday.


Thank you to you (and others who have posted here) for your business!

I see you screwed up another set for me Scott, way to go. I hope they run as crappy as the last set you did for me. Third set on their way.
