Porkypig, i'll expand .a couple of mates run prosystems carbs and they run great. i borrowed my mates unused one,set up for 410ci sb,and it didn't help my motor.i contacted Patrick prior to using it and he suggested it may be a lttle too big.my take on this is the carb size on my motor is not a restriction. i tried the various carbs because when looking to step up my program,some carb shops suggested a 950hp type carb. the prosystems carb felt great and had good responce no mistake,just no improvement over the BG on my package in its current form. as people say - your results may vary

Tex, I agree, sometimes 'big enough' is just better and going bigger just kills more initial torque without enough motor to pay you back in HP...seen it a hundred times.
GENERALLY....On a heavier vehicle, I find a slightly undersized carb is better and more consistent than an oversized carb, it's also more responsive to tuning for conditions.

You get a dyno sheet with every one of Patrick's carbs.
Ive NEVER seen a ProSystems come with a DYNO sheet, but they do come with a SPEC sheet and suggestions for jetting ranges.
WHATEVER..
You get a F!@#$@@ sheet.... Who cares what it's called..
