Ran my Plus4 Team tonight with 5,5 mm venturi (ran just perfect of course :-)). When the ambient temperature dropped the engine started to scream on the straight and have a little lean idle. I turned the HSN approximate 1/726
turn out and both top and bottom were dialed once again. This was in 10º Celsius... It will be interresting to see the sensitivity of the needles in summer time...

.The 5,5 mm venturi really tamed the engine. There is not a big bottom power increase but still an ok top. I thought the small venturi would give the same bottom increase like a bottom end pipe and/or long manifold does but its not even close. To gain more runtime with the small venturi I must be carefull not to be too hard on the throttle now the engine hasn't the same amount of power as it has with e.g. 7 mm venturi. I can really understand why Neal writes that the correct venturi often makes better runtimes because a specific engine will have maximum overall power with e.g 7,5 mm venturi. Then you can use ½ throttle instead of 3/4 or full throttle to get from point A to B in the same time.

Just need to drive around several tanks. It will go rich suddenly and that's when it is fully ready. It will be reliable and steady after that point.
