The later thermoquad equipped engines did. One of the tricks I remember guys with the early 340 doing was installing the 750 AVS off a 440 on them, they always went faster.
do you think any of that was a function of people not understanding or having the ability to tune the TQ?
not questioning the veracity of them going faster with the smaller carb, but merely wondering aloud if it was just because it was so new that the secrets had yet to be unlocked.
