A little more oomph

Rat Bastid,
Post #47. You keep getting it wrong. I didn't get it wrong. Get some new glasses. There was a once only vac sec version of the AFB for one year in 1957 used on a 312 Ford engine. Which was the vac sec version I was referring to in post #44.

Yep, a convoluted one year only carb. Who cares? I don’t care what Carter did. I’ve laid out why the Holley is almost always the better choice. I’ve laid out why the QJ is the most tunable carb out there if that makes you happy. I’ve laid out the shortcomings of the Carter/Brocks carbs, which I will add the only thing I care about less than what Carter did is what Edelbrock did or even does. I made it very plain so even you could see the difference. And yet, you hold to your fantasy that the Carter/Brock is some ingenious carb that beats all comers at everything. One could make the argument that a set of Weber’s is an even better choice. I wouldn’t because giving up power isn’t what I consider as a good plan. Again, who cares what Carter did in 1957? If it was so great it would still be manufactured. If it was so great, so innovative, so ahead of its time don’t you think Edelbrock would bring it back? Yet they haven’t and they won’t. There isn’t a market for a carb that didn’t work in 1957.
