It would then be a 450 CFM with a small single primary for cruising and have a large secondary to kick it in the *ss.

What are your thoughts?


Hi tlowe . . . instead of blocking an entire throttle bore (and re-jiggering fuel flows) why not just fit a tapered restrictor-plate:
Building Speed to dial the throttle area down to the desired CFM? Both the primary and secondary bore diameters could be tuned.
