It's been recommended that I install larger discharge nozzles (.037"/.031") in the 650DP (stock 0.028") on my 306"/4speed racecar. However, I'm not sure which nozzle TYPE to get... the straight or tube type? Any thoughts or opinions, guys?
Thanks, Ryan  ------------------

I like the tube type myself Ryan. Holley tests have shown no appreciable difference between the two. ------------------

I like the tube type also. One other thing. Going up to a 37 you will be ok, but if you ever go above that you need to get a hollow squirter screw. 37 an below the restriction in the squirter is the squirter size itself. Once you go above that the passage around the screw that the gas goes though can restrict it. They sell a hollow screw to solve this problem. Works well. I have them on booth ends of 750 dp with 41 tube type squirters. Later, David Cole

Thanks for the hollow screw info, David. I'm making a note to my file. Will the step up in squirter size cause me to want to step down any in jet size?
What'cha tink? Ryan

Sorry Ryan, I assumed that everyone knew of the hollow discharge nozzel screws. the nozzels have zero effect on the jet selection. The nozzels do nothing after initial WOT. ------------------
