Dominator Carb in Supergas
Hi Guys, Can anyone tell me if there are any problems with running a Dominator carb on a Supergas car ?. Are there any modifications or adjustments that need to be done to these carbs ?. I have one on a BBC 555 cube, approximately 900 hp, 1150 cfm. I have been told it will not run properly on the stop. I have no info on what settings it was set up at. I have no info on carb settings yet.
Thanks Patrick. |

Re: Dominator Carb in Supergas
Hopefully a few guys will chime in. A friend of mine runs a dominator in SST on his 421 sbc. It was worth a couple mph over his 950 Holley. I dont recall him ever having an "issue". And I believe he used an adapter.

Re: Dominator Carb in Supergas
I run a 1050 dominator that has been reworked to flow 1150+ on a 565 with no problems. I use an inline throttle stop and the only suggestion is th make the secondaries 1:1 with the primaries. it will be more consisent on the stop.

Re: Dominator Carb in Supergas
Hi Bob, the car runs a Dedendear under carb stop. I have purchased the car complete but do not have it at my place yet to be able to check everything. Have you ever heard of Smith Brothers Chassis, they had a shop in the Massachusetts area. They built Pro Stock cars back in the .90's. I believe they sold out to some one but am unable to find out anything. The car i bought is a 1990 Beretta Pro Stock car built by Smith Bros. Thanks Patrick.

Re: Dominator Carb in Supergas
Hi Rod, No nothing a s yet. I thought Bob from Massachusetts may have heard of Smith Brothers Chassis as he comes from that area also. Or maybe anybody that remembers Pro Stock from the early .90's. I did speak to a guy at Lebanon Valley raceway and he remembered them , but did not know who took them over or bought them out.
Cheers Patrick. 2 1/2 weeks to go. |
