Re: Willy's Super Bowls
Is that some kind of fast food? Seriously, as I understand it, their bowl/s supposedly reduces
fuel supply aeration. Given a well tuned carb to start with, it seems to me you'd need on-car race time data collection
to really prove any tuning benefit. Seat of the pants is too subject to psychological influence with many people.
Be interested in hearing what jmarkaudio and some of the other carb guru's here have to say...

Re: Willy's Super Bowls
My inquiry would aim towards keeping the afr consistent with high g load non banked corners (getting rid of lean spikes). If it were fast food I would likely be answering not inquiring!
Re: Willy's Super Bowls
(Sounds like we're both food experts.) Again, I think only way to prove it is real time data collection.
You're probably aware that some carb builders(e.g.Braswell) sometimes use asymmetrical jetting
to address circle track conditions.

Re: Willy's Super Bowls
I agree with the real time deal. I guess I will pop on them and figure it out, pizzed away more than that on more foolish stuff in my life. Boobie bar nights come to mind for some reason.
Re: Willy's Super Bowls
A lot of the top running dirt late model guys use them...pretty unique deal.

Re: Willy's Super Bowls
Probably gave them away. All other things being equal, don't see that they'd hurt anything.
Still like to hear what Speedtalk's carb geniuses think.

Who do you know running it? I can only think of one on one of the two national tours.Krooser wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2019 4:22 pm A lot of the top running dirt late model guys use them...pretty unique deal.

Re: Willy's Super Bowls
I think the video is misleading , if gasoline formed these bubbles a normal set of bowls wouldn't be doing as well as they do

I didn't watch the video you are referencing but IIRC it was a BLP video that showed how much aeration goes on in fuel bowl. Or maybe Mark Whitener did the video.
Re: Willy's Super Bowls
Yes Mark did a video with standard top feed N/S and a BLP bottom feed. I had problems a couple weeks ago with a BLP carb and lean out in the corner. After taking it apart I found it had top feed 110 N/S which I attribute some of the issue to.....I didn't watch the video you are referencing but IIRC it was a BLP video that showed how much aeration goes on in fuel bowl.

Re: Willy's Super Bowls
Aside from a carb calibration with excess emulsion air which will cause a part-throttle over-rich stumble, it is just as likely, possibly more likely, that cornering and corner exit stumble issues are from too much fuel pressure, which, when setting the float level to just dribble out the sight plug, will result in the float pontoon being closer to the bottom of the bowl and not able to drop enough to let the inlet valve open enough for WOT flow demand. Higher fuel pressure means the pressure drop through the N&S is greater and this encourages more vapor to boil out of the liquid fuel. The same phenomenon of vapor pressure release is what makes carbonated beverage foam up a bottle neck when the cap is removed.BlitzA64 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 18, 2019 1:17 pmYes Mark did a video with standard top feed N/S and a BLP bottom feed.

Re: Willy's Super Bowls
Emulsion bubbles are created in a low pressure environment, at atmospheric pressure ,, unless soap has been added ,, I don't see how these bubbles in a fuel bowl would stay suspended above the same liquid it is formed from ,, I could be horribly mistaken ,, if the situation is as bad as the video represents , a Holley carburetor wouldn't function IMO

A lot of the Holley carbs don't function very well. That is certainly the fault of the end user though. Some of the junk I've seen over my lifetime is baffling. And most guys think it's ok to put up with junk.
