BG Tech, How are the tri power setups for small blocks working out? (six shooter I guess its called) There was 1 fella on here a while back that had one but had a few issues with it. I would love to get that setup for my Beau if not just for the :cool: factor.
Are they tunable for a rookie like myself?
I have to ask 1 more thing after thinking again about the 6 shooter. How much taller are they than lets say an Edelbrock performer rpm and a holley? Lots of questions but the more I think about it I would love that sitting on my new 406 I am building (if finances hold out :D )

Thanks for the input

The SBC Chevy systems have been working out really well. Much better than any of us could have predicted. We actually can't keep up with the demand right now. They are 11-1/4" from the top of the air cleaner, to the top of the block. We may offer a smaller air cleaner elements (they come with a 3") to get a little more clearance. So far the response has been very good on the ease of setup, and tuning. I've actually just installed a system on a ZZ4 in a 48 Sedan Delivery we have, and I was done with all of the tuning in under 30 Minutes.

The picture the magazines have been shown were a typo. They were just supposed to show that we offer 2x4 carburetors, but based on the response we're getting we make look at offering them in the future once we get caught up with the current projects.

Keep building them TRIPOWERS!

In terms of ease, now, I had "blueprints" to work off in terms of tuning., bt just ask BLT4FN ( Shaun) who helped with the last stages of the install, it fired up and we went out and ran it!

" I've never seen anything work so well out of the box."!

With that standard tune, I have no doubt in my military mind the BG system would be identical. Install, set idle and FLOG! And then get ridiculous economy on the way to the next dragstrip! :cool:

Can you detail the differences between the Mighty Demon, and the Non-RS Race Demon for us. Also are the flow desiganations on the Demon carb models wet, or dry flow, numbers? and how does that compare to the way Holley rates their carbs.

I.E. I have often heard that the Holley 950HP will only wet flow around 830CFM, but has a 950cfm dry flow rating.

The Race Demon carburetors, and Mighty Demons use the same main bodies (although the boosters are not replaceable in the field on the Mighty Demons) The metering blocks, and rest of the circuitry is set up differently between them. The Race carburetors are calibrated to be able to handle more radical engines.

We wet flow test every carburetor before they leave our building. Flow testing is a touchy area. The numbers or ratings we put on our carburetors is an average air flow number that you would see on a dynomometer if the carburetor was put on an application we would have recommended it out. You can change the way a carburetor is flowed to get any type of number you're looking for. Holley's 950 is actually two front halfs of a 4779 750, insalled on an 850 baseplate. The flow number was designed to go after carburetor modifiers. Our 825 Carburetors will actually flow 953 CFM at 1.5" HG. This means, if your engine can pull that much vacuum at W.O.T. this is how much CFM it will flow, more vacuum, more CFM less vacuum less CFM.
