CFM vs HP

[eric]

Does any one know where I coul find a chart that will tell me what is the the best CFM car to put versus how many Horse power you have ??

And doest any body knows advantage/disadvantage to have a carb that is to big for the engine ?

thanks

if the carb really too huge the air flow will not let the fuel vaporize correctly and mix with air.
You have great difficulty in controling a fuel rich condition.
In other word you have a very hard time getting the engine run well. power will be down and gas milage will be worse.
There is an optimum for the state of tune for any engine.
