If they make it in a 1 barrel, I'm going to get one for Patch's Prius. clap.gif

It's about time someone re-invented the carb. Tired of all that fuel injection crap! :smile16:

Makes me think of slide carbs for motorcycles been around a long time.  Not sure how you get variable venturis though to get 600-850 cfms from the same body.  I can see the smaller the cfm it is the less efficient it would be.  Only way to find out is to try it.  Can't find any pricing information on it but did find it posted on another car site that says that what this guy makes is not cheap.

I'm sure it's gonna cost. But it sounds almost too good to be true. But who sits there and says( lets build a better carburetor) in our time of fuel infection! So he's got me curios, not that I need one at the moment! crazy.gif :smile16:

5 days until we see how expensive these things are! think.gif think.gif

 

[Chevy2184]

I heard 1300?

 

[Patchman]

I bet you are in the ball park. The next question is going to be who's gonna be the guinea pig and try it! We need real world results! :grin:

 

[Chevy2184]

Yeah and I'm fixing to be in the market for a 1050? But not sure if I want to be the guinea pig? Lol I know the quick fuel will work just fine? But I bet it won't be long and someone will have one strapped on a dyno seeing what's up??

I was looking at it again yesterday. I'm wondering how much of their results are do to directing the air flow with their vortex devices. Looks like there is one on top of the carb, and one that goes down in the intake. I could see where some intakes wouldn't work. think.gif

 

[Chevy2184]

Yeah they were saying you get 85hp gains with their vortex thingy instead of the just 50hp increase??

 

[Patchman]

Kind of like the turtle back in the day! Good ol TBI technology! :smile27:

 

[Chevy2184]

Just got off the phone with the inventor/owner of silverback carbs... Nice guy! Told me with the motor I was putting together that I only needed one of his 850 carbs? Quick fuel said 1050? He told me cause I was not going to be turning super high rpm's that he guaranteed me his carb would out do the quick fuel on the dyno? Plus better air fuel and better fuel economy and better throttle response? And for a mere 2700.00$ I could own one?? WOW?? 2695.00$ I say damn? Said they are not even trying to compete with carbs cause they not even on the same playing field??

Hey Chevy2184 Maybe with one of those ur ol slug of a boat might actually do something entertaining!

 

[Chevy2184]

I guess I will never get to find out?? Lol I'll have to just put some neon or something on it??

 

[Patchman]

I kind of figured it was going to be high, but I wasn't thinking the price of fuel injection. crazy.gif
