You can feel free to email myself or Carl for any info you need.

Carlos is an idiot. He thought he knew more about carburetion than Carl and I do, and told us how to do our job every single step of the way. Even today he illy represents our product, and consequently holds our "Worst Nightmare Customer 3VAR!" title for about two years now.

...In the end, I think he finally came to realize that it was his own fat 350 lbs havin' *** that was bound to slow down a 2300 lbs car.
I agree as well, but who is "Carlos"?

For the record, the current owner of cdrad51 (aka Carlos) carb is very pleased and will be tuning more once it gets warmed up. WAY more low end power and definitely delivers a kick when the secondaries open up.

Dont be a hater Carlos...

DoO is still there (as far as I know). You have to be some special person in order to see it though.
