I can't think of any mechanical secondary carbs that were rated at 780 cfm. Not saying one doesn't exist, just that I'm not familiar with it.

I'm thinking that if Eric's never heard of it...it probably doesn't exist...

I thought the difference was the 780's have a metering block with changeable jets on the secondary side and the 750's have a metering plate that has no changeable jets. I've got one of each, I'll have to look at the boosters.

Greg;

The metering block denotes a 4150 style carb, while a metering plate denotes a 4160 style carb. A 4160 style carb can be converted to 4150 style simply by replacing the secondary metering plate with an appropriate metering block.
