There's NO WAY that carb will make your motor make more vacuum.........Vacuum is what it is....... If you can't handle the truth, you're living a lie.......

Reason I say this that you can pickup a toilet setup for the price of the SV1 [color:"red"]65 Hemi Belvedere coming soon [/color] [color:"#00FF00"]557" Indy engine 1.07 60ft 144mph in the 8th 2100 lbs package [/color]

I think the jury is still out as to just how much better the SV1 is than a regular dominator. Glad I waited to see some results before buying one myself. I'll be sticking with my current carb for now.

This is what I keep reading and i doubt that Jon Kaase and David Reher are wrong on what the have seen and used.
