Running a stromberg. Claims increased performance. I'm skeptical :rolleyes: doesn't seem like he could be increasing performance much with the original intake but maybe I'm wrong. Thoughts from any carb experts or non experts please.

A two bbl on the intake will help, just how much I'm not sure. One way to check is at the top end. I have tried the top end test, but I only take it up there and immediately start slowing down.
