Don't read if you're close minded

Sort of but not really --LOL. This is a major hint right here>>> The best running street engines will produce about -1.5" hg @ WOT AND move close to the same amount of CFM as the carb is rated for.

As has already been stated if you are looking for the least restrictive carb and pull -.5" hg for that last 3hp it will not drive/perform nearly as well as the above example. J.Rob
But if you feel what is needed is 1.5" hg for street, how's wanting the least restriction to get what's needed wrong ? (needed is 1.5" hg in this case)
