Well, I got the first of my Fish carbs today- it's an interesting device! It probably works differently than I originally thought- the holes in the Throttle shaft go thru both sides. Looks like air is pulled thru the holes, emulsifying the fuel- it doesn't flow over the butterfly like I thought. There isn't a true venturii, either- the carb necks down to the butterfly dia, and then stays the same to the base. I got a lot of interesting original literature- this carb could supposedly replace 50's era 4 BBL's. It will be interesting to see how much air it can flow. I'll have pics later this week- how do you post them here?
Just bolting a Holley sniper on everything and calling it a day, is like swapping an LS in everything these days - it's uninspired and boring in my book.
I prefer quirky mechanical stuff, and coming up with original ideas :-)
Here is a nice video that explains the inner Fish workings:
