Symptoms of wrong cam installation
All “950’s” are not created equal.
In other words...... there are several “sizes” of 950’s.
For off the shelf “950’s” the Venturi sizing can be 1.375, or 1.450, or 1.600.
All are called a “950”.
When discussing carbs these days, especially 950’s...... it’s usually best to be talking in terms of Venturi size and throttle bore diameter.
My 20 or so year old “built from scratch” “950”(actually flows about 860 calculated wet flow), using a genuine Holley HP950 body that has the 1.375” Venturi, which is the same size as the typical 750 DP.
Getting off topic I know......
When the Proform bodies came out, I built several new carbs around those. I used new Holley 4779 metering blocks, and those things ran very well.
A few years ago I built one from the Holley version of that body, and outfitted it with some “bling”(billet baseplate and metering blocks).
I have yet to try it on something, so I don’t know if it’s good, or if it’s a flop.
It’s basically an HP750....... 1.375v/1.687bore
With what the Brawler carbs sell for nowadays, it doesn’t pay to build your own from scratch.
