Ultimate daily-driver Gen II A Body to build

Thanks for the good info!!! Can you tell me whether a sealed carb enclosure will affect the mixture/signals in the manner that would negate the need for blow-thru modifications to a carb in a forced induction system, or doesn't it work that way? I am wondering whether a normally-aspirated carb could handle boost with no modifications, if it were in an enclosed box...

Probably not, huh????

Thanks for any info...

I'm not sure about how an enclosure would affect the tuning, but I do know it removes the need to do things like add channels to the base and drill ports to the throttle shafts to avoid leaking boost. Pretty sure that by putting the carb in an enclosure, it works much more like an NA carb, just not clear on what happens to the mixture during boost.
