Re: Carter AFB Question
Around 550-575 cfm. I have only flowed one carb of those specs (1.437 x 1.563, 1.118 x 1.313) and it flowed 560 cfm on my bench.

Re: Carter AFB Question
Mine is home made too. When Superflow was located here in Tulsa, a local machine shop made many of his parts. A long time friend worked there at that time, and he made their parts. Orfice plates, etc. Still had his little notebook with all the specs. He whipped out a set of parts for me. Mine is just red instead of blue.
Last time I was at R&M they still had that flow bench Lee & Buddy built. Somebody had asked about buying it. David and Bruce mentioned it.

Re: Carter AFB Question
Sorry I didn't see this sooner.
I've lived in Tulsa all my 68+ years. Just bought a house with a Sand Springs address about eleven years ago. Only six miles from my shop (which I sold my dyno & closed just over a year ago) in west Tulsa. Now my mailing address is the same town as my long time friend & hero, 2 time NHRA Top Fuel World Champ Bennie "The Wizard" Osborn. LOL
