To Spring Or Not To Spring..A Question For 67 Heaven

[LT4man]

The biggest reason why the manufacturers went to vacuum secondaries is this:

The secondaries would only open as far as absolutely necessary to fulfill the air and fuel requirements of the engine. A secondary (no pun intended ) result of this was the ease of tuning that was now available to motorheads. The sizing of a carburetor was made much easier and you did not have to worry about running too rich or lean at wide open throttle.

Amazing how smart those engineers are!

We went to a local Sunday evening Cruise-In last night and tried a little experiment.

Test #1: Pulled in, parked in a central location and stayed in the car. Most people walked on by with brief side-glances.

Test #2: Exited the vehicle and walked away to a discreet distance; turned to observe. Lots of people circled the car and scratched their heads looking at the fenders. Several knelt to look under the front and rear. Some photos.

Test #3: Returned to open the hood, then walked away again. Car was instantly surrounded with lots of discussion between people. Lots of photos. Lots of approving nods.

Analysis: You're right, Mark. Everyone likes big.

I'm sure glad to hear the " Everyone likes big " thingy :gap make me think that some day I might try something like that too.
