I have a friend that has been enamored with the new Barry Grant carbs. I respect him a lot as a mechanic but I fault him on this one because the only reason he can give why they are good is that there is no gasket below the fuel level (I think Edelbrocks are also like that) and that they look good. I agree that they are nice but unless I had a custom hot rod with an open engine bay and only showed it off the trailer I would not put a B.G. carb on my car for that reason alone.
