Bruce,
In our haste to get this done before T&L closed down for the evening I did not get as much info as maybe i should have done. I remember the air flow into the engine being up measuably starting from about 5500 or so rpm. The idle was good but I do not remember what the vacuum was compared to the 4150 carb this Dominator replaced. Also I remember the intake vacuum at WOT being less with the 4500 carb compared to the smaller one but I can't recall just how much. There was a lot of pulls made that day and since then I have done a lot more. At my age things start to blur somewhat!
As of now Dusty is building an upgraded version of the 350 that this carb was tested on. We intend to use the Dominator right out of the gate on this engine.
The target on this engine is to crack the 600 hp mark on hopefully pump gas. We'll see.
