Smile Pro Systems...The Best

I want to say thank you to Patrick at Pro System for the great service and great carb. I ordered a carb on Monday, a week ago, and Thursday of that week it arrived. When I opened the box, it was damaged in shipping, and I immediately called Patrick. He said no problem, he would build another carb and have UPS pick up this one. Next day UPS was at my door to pick up the carb, and 2 days later I had a new carb in hand.

I bolted the new carb on, set the float levels, adjusted the idle screws, and everthing ran fine. I then put the LM-1 A/F meter on. Adjusted the idle ratio to the high 14 range, then checked the other readings....cruise reading, in the high 13-14 range.....dropped down to the high 12 range when the main circuit kicked in....everything on this carb was dead on....right out of the box.

Again, thanks Patrick for the GREAT service.

Was looking into volumetric efficentcy about a month ago. It said my engine uses up the 1000 cfm by 4000 rpm and to have 100% at my shift point (7500) I needed 1895 CFM. I talked to my engine builder and he said it's probably right, but there would be so much torque down low I wouild never hook up the way it does now...

I also bought my carb from Patrick and couldn't be happier. When you talk to him about your build, he will tell you "ok, now I'm your guy as long as you have that carb." If you ever have a questions or issues, or want to make changes, he's right there. Thanks again Patrick!!

I have only great things to say about Patrick and his ProSystems carbs. By far, the best I've ever had and his customer service is #1!

I have also purchased several carbs from Patrick at Pro-Systems and every one has been perfect right out of the box. My last purchase was the most amazing IMO. He set up two 1050 dominators for the tunnel ram manifold on my 605 in3 motor and with nothing more than checking float level and adjusting idle speed this system runs perfect on the street, no lag, bog, anything.

Add my name to the list of very satisfied customers of Pro-Systems carbs. I ordered a 4150 double pumper and the difference it made in my Roush 402R was incredible. Now when I nail it at 40 mph the back end lights up and hold on tight. No more terrible vacume secondaries that take forever to get to top end.

I installed the carb and the next day the wife took the car out and came back to say "What in the **** did you do to the car?" I asked what she meant and she said she went to pass a car and lit up the tires all around the car (to the joy of some youthful van spectators).

Shortly later I pulled the plugs and noticed they could use a little more fuel and contacted Pro-systems. The recommended changing the air bleeds (not jetting) and now the car is even faster. What next!

What is next is a less restrictive exhaust system. It is on the way.

Great people, great organization, great service, fair pricing. I highly recommend to all.
