Is a 1050 enough to feed a 514?

Just like the title says. Will a 1050 be OK or will I need some more carb?

a 1050 Dominator will work fine, you can alway swap some boosters to get some more air later.

Ran an out-of-the-box 1050 Dom. on a 514 iron CJ headed motor for years. It was a great carb, never touched it after getting it tuned in.

Motor has been 5.84 in a 2800+ chassis car.

Thanks. I saw the one for sale in the classifieds.

1050 is okay.........1150 = better.

alky = better still................

Only for those that are too stupid to figure out how to change jets and air bleeds.

Lem...please be careful...us injected alky guys are kinda sensitive. We have jets too!
Remember...alky is not just for drinkin'!

alky carbs have jets and air bleeds...........

Fabio, who won the Jeg's quick championship.........a guy with injected methanol or a girl with gasoline carbs? Seems there is more than one to skin that cat

I rekon if they switched fuel systems the outcome would still be the same.............i doubt her win was dependant on the use of a gas carb...........

SO!!! Who won the 10.90 Super STreet Class at Silver Dollar this past weekend ? A guy with a dual seat injected alky 58 Ford or a chick on a stick with 2 gas Carbs?.......You got it!!! Keith Fulp

Oh and by the way the 1050 works well on a 514..Mine wnet 5.50 at 125mph in a 2700lb. doorcar on alky

anybody figure's out how to tune individual cylinders and have unlimited air flow I will switch back to carbs

Gas or Alky,Imo if you are a good tuner you can win either way.

Lem has got your answer!! Just ask

no sir , a big single alky carb will not hold a light to an injector as far as performance , they may be a little more consistent if they are within a workable cfm that works correctly because they are "self correcting" to an extent.

The fastest piston driven engines on this planet are injected and no one can argue that.

Injected M5?

"I will switch back to carbs"
Did you mean to say "carb"?
