If my memory serves me correctly that is about right on the hole size, but it has a pin that is off the diaphragm to push the ball open. That pin is about .090 in diameter and reduces the area of the .224 opening. On my 2X4 modified cars I drilled out the metal sleeve and installed a larger diameter one for more flow to keep the float levels up.
