Always such sage advice.
You and Pop make a good team.

Did you see that Holley pulled the plug on the Hilborn life support machine?

You could leave the nightmares on and watch pops tail lights get smaller towards the finish line.

That's my boy! :D :D :D :D

If you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen, or Texas!

Who is Pop?

Don't let them beat you down over the Webers. I think they are the slickest thing since sliced bread. I have a hard time thinking that an individual runner, with a straight shot to the head , and easy jet changes from the top side is a bad thing. Plenty of people have had great success with them. I wouldn't trade mine for 6 Holleys. :D :D

Seems to me that a certain super sweet Green car has an individual runner intake also? :D :D Though fuel injected.

Hang in there Stan, the beatings will stop soon! :D

For Sure Rick!


For our engines they are a far superior fuel mixer compared to a single four barrel. Setting them up takes time and diligence. And, if there are other issues present, then the complexity can make things difficult to pinpoint.

Thanks for the compliment, but lets face the facts.
Webers are good for your street car that you spent 2 months to get lined out to drive to get you a nice I-talian dinner. Then you hope the weather doesn't change so it will run to get back home.
Mechanical injection pretty forgiving and the main adjustment is a pill change. It all depends if you want to race or go get a meal.
I have helped Seymour look for some little gizmo that he dropped out of a weber at Tulsa one year so don't tell me how great they are.
Hilborn instructions are 2 pages vs. the Weber book that weighs so much I'm not sure you could ship it in flat rate box.
Thanks for your time.

Jr.

When I bought a street engine from Jr. he gave me a lifetime supply of Toad Tape.
Go Green!
