I heard an interesting theory from my QuadraJet-tuning friend today.
He was commenting on the fresh air duct to my carburator. He liked it
but said that I might see better mileage by NOT using cool air. He said
that power should be better with fresh air but the fuel would atomize
better with hot air.
Not sure that I really believe this. He certainly made my carb work
better but it just sounds ... odd.
Keep in mind this guy knows his Q-Jets because of building lots of hot
GM cars. He's all about Power.
Why wouldn't GMC have ducted fresh air to the Q-Jet? They had to know it
got darned hot on top of that motor.
