Hey guys, I bought a custom carb a while back and would like some help with a baseline. I tried to call the shop but never got a response.
I believe it's an 850
It has billet baseplate, metering blocks and HP main body.
1.75 throttle blades
1 9/16 venturi
Annular boosters
74/76 main jets
35/31 squires
HSAB 30/30
IAB 62/62
4.5 PV'S
50CC acc pumps front and rear.
The throttle shafts are thinned. It worked well on my 385 but I'd like to use it on my 439.
Thanks

When I got done jetting my 830hp I am at 84 front with P/V and 92 rear no power valve. The 1000hp I had was well into the 90's jet wise with P/V's that 1000 was super lean out of the box. Are you racing with this 850 or running this on the street?

Street. Straub squishy roller 439 239/247@.050 108 LSA
I'm changing the Weiand single plane out for a Performer RPM.
I'll also be putting 30cc pumps on it.
I was thinking 8.5 power valves to start. Idle vacuum is 13", not sure what it pulls at cruise yet.
Do annular boosters effect main jet sizing?
I've got a LM2 AFR gauge to help me.
