Fouldout420/ Float Bowls

[Superkarter]

Would appreciate any help. Where can I get oversized float bowls for alky? I'm told fouledout420 could help? We're running the 35.5mm FTZ alky smooth bores on an RZ powered Superkart, Vito's monoblock, FTZ digital ignition, +4mm twister crank and etc. Here's the deal from my post on another board.... The problem on a Superkart is we brake hard after a very long strraight. Engine goes like a bat out of hell down the straight and then dies under braking (I can't save it by hand choking etc). We've concluded it is fuel starving with all the fuel rushing to the front of the bowls. I have the twin alky pumps that FTZ makes and am running their worked 35.5 TMXs. Last time out, I ran the pumps into a sump tank that then gravity feeds into the carbs. This kept her running after hard braking but the engine was skipping under WOT conditions down the straight. I wonder if I can have enough vacuum to run 4 pumps (2 into sump and two between sump and carbs)? Or maybe I need those oversized bowls? Who makes them? Thanks again, George

do you happen to have one float cut off? how about a vent on the gas tank cap? is it drilled as big as it can be?? how about the petcock? is it drilled out? have you tried putting a bigger pilot in the carb so when ya chop the throttle its not cutting the fuel and going lean??

Thanks, all good ideas. I thought about ther vent and have made it it bigger. Seemed to help some. Didn't think about the pilot jets but thats a good idea.
