    Guess I jumped the gun there. I'm excited to see how the summit carb likes boost. I keep contemplating one because my dads n/a is fantastic.

    750 anular booster carb designed after the old holley stock carb double pumper

    The carb comes with neoprene floats instead of brass
    Replaced both 30 c.c. pumps with holley 50c.c pumps.
    Increased primary jets by 10 sizes
    Plugged secondary power valve and increased 15 jet sizes
    Removed choke horn

    Original set up was on my 454 and that was very worn out. I did get to work out a few bugs before spinning a rod bearing on the summit and I had no issues besides a little tuning. I did nothing to the the shafts and no leaks or smell of raw fuel. Oh I also put in the larger .120 needle and seats.
