Im looking at putting carburetors on a motor and trying to figure out how to select the carb size ?
Is it all based on head flow or is that only part of it ? There isnt much on the internet other than proven engine combos. Now a 250 Chevy straight 6 can run triple webers that flow 250 cfm per choke for a total of 1500 CFM, this is where i know IR manifolds work with higher CFM because obviously a single 1500 carb on a common plenum manifold would be way over carb'd. Now its a 3.3 Subaru motor H6 boxer engine. 202 CI HEad flow data found here http://speedtalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=189677 States it maxs out at about 165 cfm SO I would assume I can use that as part of the calculation. Obviously you cant go higher than that or your over carbing. What are your thoughts ? |
