I think a .110 good for 650 HP or so. Edit: Don't do it cos I use those for a reason and you can`t just change em at will. Get .130`s and set the pressure to 5 1/2 max..............There's WAY more to those than what they will support hp wise............. You talking GPH? I think the .110's flow 30 gph x 2 thats 60. Not enough I guess?

No, I`m talking about bigger=lower fuel pressures and less aeration in the bowls which means more solid fuel flow and tunes...........I see .110`s in dommys and have to wonder when these builders are going to see the light...............

What Dom said..Most run WAY to much fuel pressure anyway. Get a good pump and the right pieces and 5-5.5 is PLENTY

Ahhh gotcha. .130's & 5.5psi. To have it 'pour' into the carb rather than 'sprayed' in with .110 & 7.5psi. Learn something new today, thanks.

Pretty much and look inside a standard Holley bowl at the "shelf" that the fuel hits and has to overcome then look at a QF entrance and see the smooth funnel which is WAY better. There`s more than meets the eye here and plenty more for ALL of us to learn............

The Proform and Quick Fuel bowls are the same, they were a joint venture between Quick Fuel and Dave Braswell. It's my understanding Quick Fuel assembles the carbs sold by Proform.
As far as N&S I use .128's for my gas 4150's, .140's for Dominators and anything E85. Methanol Doms get .164.

Get a good pump and the right pieces and 5-5.5 is PLENTY I have a good fuel pump...That is why both my .130 seats are shot...Fuel goes bad, makes the regulator stick closed, pump can't return fuel to the tank...Pump is capable of 70psi if used with efi......It was set at 6lbs.

The easy way to tell I suppose is loom inside the bowl. If it says POW inc. Its made by Braswell..
