Most likely I'll run my 1050. I know a few people that run 1050's on engines that make 900-1000hp. Is a bigger carb NEEDED? I'm not sure. Doesn't mean it would hurt though. If I do anything different, it will probably be a carb from Thumper.

BTW, saw some pictures of your new 572 Andy, and it looks like it is going to be a killer piece. Looking forward to the dyno results.


Yep, looks like Chuck put some pictures of the 572 up on their facebook page. I'm not a facebook guy so I had to look around for it.

Anything in the 900 to 1000 hp will pick up power with a bigger carb over a 1050. You could be leaving 30 or 40 dyno hp on the table with a 1050. The extra hp may or may not get you down the track quicker. Sometimes the smaller carb goes down the track just fine if the chassis doesn't like the extra power.
