Dominator Carb in Supergas

cad · 08-31-2013, 07:52 AM

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.

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.

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.

I don't think that I actually know anyone that doesn't run a dominator in SG.. hopefully when you get the car, it will come with the log book and you will find all of the throttle stop settings in the book.. IF NOT, don't panic.. if I can do it, anyone can do it.. and don't be afraid to ask questions of your local SG racers.. that's how I'm still learning...

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.

I did hear of Smith Brothers but that was quite a while ago. I do not know who, if anyone, had taken over.
