Default Re: What Throttle Stop to use?

I will throw my .02 in as well.

I will agree with just about everyone here, Gary with #1 Stop is just about as good as it gets. For many, many years we had #1 Stop and Stinnett carbs on our super gas, street, and comp cars. They all worked great! And Gary's customer service is great as well.
A couple years back, when APD came out with there Max Speed throttle stop carb, we bought one for the super gas car to see how well we liked it. What we found was, it layed down on the stop just as good as the #1 Stop, but was about 3 mph faster. For that reason alone, we now have the APD Max Speed carb on all 3 cars. And all 3 have sped up between 2-4 mph. To me, that is easy hp. One thing to remember on the APD is to run them EXACTLY how John and Joe tell you too. They know what they are talking about, and there customer service after the sale has been wonderful.

In my opinion, you can't go wrong with either throttle stop setup. Both work well enough to win races and championships. And both have great people to work with.
