Re: Stk/SS carbs
I don't know about aluminum float bowls, but a real tech guy will bust you for 4 corner idle circuits on carbs that did not have them. Far as I know, billet metering blocks are not legal. Other than capacity, I can't see where float bowls are a big issue, you really can't save more than a couple of ounces of weight, and since you can run practically any fuel supply system, capacity can't be a real concern. Are 4 corner idle circuits a real performance advantage? Probably not, provided you are a really good tuner, especially since hardly anyone leaves from an idle.
Eventually, the issue becomes "How many changes are we going to allow?", and "How far from stock and original are we going to stray?" Stock Eliminator has gotten pretty radical and pretty far from the original intent. The line has to be drawn somewhere if Stock is to retain a real identity of its own.
