As long as I am n/a while I test the trans I want as much hp as it can make as is.While I was at summit store I could not stop myself but I just went for a new trans cooler.This carb looks like it will do nice with my 446 Victor head 340 cfm at .630 Victor intake 10/1 cr 112 lsa 109 ICL .260 at .050 roller I got the trans cooler in so I hope to be driving soon.[video to fallow] Holly carb ps: I would use my 850 but it is a bit small I think and 17 yrs old,never cleaned

I have to admit. That sounds like a pretty decent carb for a really great price. Lots of nice features. It's about time someone started cutting racers some slack. Good luck with the new bling.

The carb had a anti corrosion liquid in it so I used the acc lever to pump it out2 squirts and the rest came out after I filled the bowls with fuel and started it.This was 3 pumps and 2 cranks almost not throttle given so I know it is rich confirmed by the exh o2 at 12.4 a/f.The floats are at 3/4 so later I will lower them to 1/2 per instructions.I had to seal the new trans temp fitting with ptfe paste. 1050 ootb idle ps: the idle air bleed is 57 I may go to a 70 like on the 1250's I had on the blower.

LOL I just realized I didn't tighten the jets I put in. Shouldn't affect idle quality but those idle bleeds could come up accordingly and of course based on the ifr sizing........I start at around a .067-.068 idles and .026-.028 on highs w/ .040 ifr's...........

Thank you.My idle is doing ok 15/1 at cold start and richer as heat gets in.I need to lean the hs air bleed from the 32 in it to maybe 40 to start and see how it goes.Just to be clear it gets rich as rpm and throttle opens ps: the jets were tight I checked. ps:Even if I get it to lean out the avg will still be too rich.[thinking hard on this 1]

My experience has been that "most of the time" rich part throttle operation when using a 4500 carb can be noticably improved by reducing the size of the t-slot feed hole in the main body.
That's where I'd start.
I also prefer to use a PV on the primary side......... Like a 6.5.
