Smile Denver/Vaporlock101

In response to the long post a few days ago relating to vapor lock or/ what ever you feel like calling it here in Denver/,I thought I would share with you our latest solution to the problem.After installing 2 Winfield SR carbs on our trick manifold with 1 updraft and 1 downdrafrt we feel we have solved the problem forever. remember there is" no crying in baseball and no vapor lock in Denver, Colorado."

So does the upper carb take care of large vapor bubbles or the small ones?

Actually this is one of the most interesting old pieces of Model A speed equiptment we have ever seen .The vapor lock part is a bit of a joke ,as that post a few days ago seemed to have all sorts of answers and ideas for our unique high altitude summer runability problem/vapor lock/ but the carb set up is for real!Enjoy Phil ,Berts Model A, Denver
