Whats the difference bewteen the stock walbro carb just being moded and a dominator carb? Are they the same Carb with just more mods or a complete differetn carb.

[George Herrin]

Same carb but Highly modifed app 34% more flow on the flow bench.

At last years build clinic at E.C.'S, George and Jon mounted a stock carb on the flow bench and we all noted the readings. Then they mounted the Dominator carb and it was clearly visable that it DID flow 34% more than a stocker. NO bull about it.   johnboy

But to get that flow you bore the carb out right?

[johnboy]

I don't know what all they do to them but it is BEAUTIFUL WORK and a 33% or 34% increase in flow from the carb is the first step  to getting more flow to the combustion chamber. George will have to answer about what they actually do as all I saw was a finished carb on the flow bench.   johnboy

DO we? I cannot tell our secrets. Those secrets are our bread and butter. It meets all rules except US/IMOW rules.

Yup built several of those kohler carbs for pullers. Do ddifferent things for different rules. Only rule on the Walbro carb is it must appear stock on the outside..... So let you imagination wonder.

if i send in my stock walbro can u make it a dominator cheaper then buying a new one? Trying to Cut some cost just do to this is all pocket racing from a 18yr old and just trying to be able to stay up front is rough lol.

[George Herrin]

To be quite honest you don't save any money sending in a used carb. You must understand it is used thus we must do more work to ensure its quality and workmanship. We start with NEW carbs thus meaning we don't have near as much work to do to achieve the same goal. Does that make sense.

George do ya'll sell the two barrel modified or do you rework the old one?

[George Herrin]

we sell them... The two barrell is a different story. You can save money by sending in an old one because the new onmes are so expensive.
