The S&S B ( and it's big brother the Super D) are tried and true.
There are a few different versions - but, all function the same.
Pros:
Very affordable ($50 - $100)
Easy to Tune (Variety of common jet sizes)
Top end power !
Simple to operate - Few moving parts
They like cubic inches (74" to 96")
They like cubic inches (74" to 96")
They look cool. - Easy to polish !
Cons:
Look for worn throttle shaft (kits to fix)
No accelerator pump (works better with electric start)
Have to cut the ball off your cable (leads to frayed ends)
If you have a 80" shovel - and don't want to pay $350 for
a Super E Kit.....

Try a B on for size.
Only carb I'll ever run, I love simplicity and functionality and the super B is exactly that.
ReplyDeleteThe B is definitely a good carb when set up correctly. They are more forgiving when it comes to exhaust systems too. The E can have scavenging issues when running straights. The B digs them straight pipes!
ReplyDeleteThat reminds me, I need to ship you my B to work over.
