750 Brawler vs 650 AVS 2 at the track, right OOTB !

And yet, he didn’t look at a plug, didn’t pull both carbs down and look at the tune up.

I have two Brawlers in the shop right now and I’m not sure how many I’ve done but not ONE even had a remotely close tune up. In fact, I’ve done several sets of them for tunnel rams and 2 exact same carbs with the exact same part number didn’t have the same tune up in them.

Im not being critical of 318’s testing. I get it. But it’s hard for me to believe that Brawler is even close to being right. There is more in it I believe.

I did look into the bowls of each at home to make sure nothing foreign was in either carb and all components (like jetting) were there to be sure neither carb would cause havoc on my engine. Then reassembled exactly as they were. The whole point of the test was "out of the box". I was clear that neither carb was tuned for "my" car. I will say, I was surprised that 2 different style of carbs rated at different CFM's right out of the box would run within a 100th of each other. That to me was more stunning than anything else from this test.
