Another concern I have is if the under carb stops will "puddle up" and "bog" when they come off the stop.

It's glad to hear someone doing well with a dual carb setup in S/C D3. I was just doubting this setup because I haven't heard of anyone doing well with a dual carb setup and throttle stop, until now. I thought Ray Connolly used to use a dual carb setup on his dragster?

Maybe we'll try it in S/C for a year and then move to Top Dragster if it doesn't work out. My brother will be driving this setup and he's never driven anything down a dragstrip before. This is why we want him to run in S/C. That way he has a second or two to think about things. He is going to Frank Hawley's school in February, so that should help. I guess because we MIGHT move him to Top Drgaster later, maybe we'll just go with the in-linkage stop. Who knows. He's not racing until next year and I've changed my mind 3 times this week about which throttle stop to use. It ought to be an interesting fall/winter.

Thanks for all the advice.
