You would be asking about RX7Carl. He and a fellow by the name of Sterling do some good carb work on Nikkis.

RX7Carl is the man. I have talked to him many times about a few different ideas I have had. I just got done sending him an encyclopedia sized PM lol. I have personally never talked to Sterling. He seems to really know whats going on also. You can check out their website at www.pbandjracing.com

They have prices for all that they do on the site.

thanks for the link. I should have waited for your reply before I I sent him a pm asking him the same questions a million other people have already asked him, questions that can all be answered by looking at his site.

The Superflow will be dusted off and fired up again soon.
Yes it will flow in both directions. 6 mongo motors in that bad boy and like Tim Allen I want more powah! 8-12 will really get the house a rockin. Prolly clean my garage at the same time too!

Time AND money? Well then we should join forces. What kinda racing?

Just rejoined the Steam Carpet Cleaners Assoc. Helping Ed Diehl with his Eprod 'vert the last few months. Building an FC coupe for Eprod right now. Sounds like you want to flow test door and window openings for FEMA!! My bench sounds like the PlaySchool or FisherPrice model, its good for about 160cfm, you shooting for 1600???

Cool, I think I met him. I crewed for Hector with his EP 1st gen, the white one. I lost touch with him and Hiram after last season. I need to get back to the track.


LOL, gotta have the powah if you wanna test bigtime.

To answer Joe's question, some people like to cap off the return on the Nikki. In the pic above, they simply removed the Y or whatever piece on top of the carb that has the fuel hookups.
