I dont like the needle valve adjustment, seems like it could come "out" of adjustment too easy. I have seen Weber Power Plates, available from TMP carbs. they look good, but are pricy. I would look into that.

I use one! I like it because one can change fuel requirements very quickly, without disassembling the carb. IMO its the best ive ever bought. Its changable from jet size #60 to #99, while the engine is still running!!!

Thanks for your input. Do you have any track time with one or dyno? How long you been running it?

I have a 98 SSs10. It weighs 3400, with me. fully stock interior w/ ps,pdb,pw,pdl,pm. 5.3 with a small cam, fully streetable. stock camaro exhaust manifold into 3in exh with mufflers. ive been useing this block since it first came out. the reason i use it is it takes about 5sec to change jets, without removing the bowl(wasteing gas) The adj needle is locked in place with an "o" ring and locknut, (will not back off). I run 1.72 st,12.23@112mph. I am going to load a custom curve into the MSD controller, IMHO should see 11s. With my MPH and weight, I should be in the 11s.
