Default Re: Best builder of Carter Thermoquads ?

Steve Wann is good with TQ's. Angelo Phillips and I have been doing our own based on Steves original blueprint and have had good success.Jack Foshee is also really good with them also.we do away with the metering rod setup and run holley jets and a few other tricks.Right now we are testing to see wether the side inlet or the bottom inlet is better for fuel feed. and we have been using -6 line with a bypass system.Also use a good air cleaner.my company sells a single 4 copy of the fresh air style unit the works killer.

I don't want to say ive Mastard them, but ive done a pretty good job,, learning from Steve Wann, Bill Bushmaker, and a few other's... i guess ill know in about 7 days when i make a pass @ Pamona.... i just built a new one for my stocker.. I have a good back up that Marlin Bogner had done for my superstocker. so i guess if the new don't work it's back to plan B

Vince Impastato at Impastato Racing Engines - Clinton Township, MI. His stuff has produced back to back double digit dyno improvements over top 16 qualifying S/S carbs - and significant on track improvements as well.

Jim,
Locally I understand Bill Stewart also builds them although I have not seen him or his car around for ages. I think Mike Cotton told me once that he also builds the odd one on the side.

I'll have to agree with Denny Steward. He really helped the driveability of our 460 Mustang with the Thermoquad besides making it faster. And he won't quit until you are satisfied with it.
