I like WH-20's, and in my opinion, stay away from tha 7 peddle crap while use'in carbs.........unless U are runn'in in tha upper 9K range!!

are the wh 20 's bridgeport carbs??????? i know some one with bridge port carbs how much sould i offer ??????? and what size jets to use ?????????

I don't know what all tha 20'z kame on...they WERE on Hipo applications, so I would figger they did kum on tha BP's...

Az fer jets, U give tha mota what it wants...I would start wit .090's and work my way down...FAT iz nice sumtimes!!!

They came with .072/.074 mains, and .046 idle jet'z, and NO vent jets!!!...this iz a std jet chart, and don't say what engine the carbs are jetted for.....0-2500' elevation...

hey Rex - any difference from a wh-20 to a wh-15? I have a set of 15's i was thinkin about tryin on my 2.5

I run the WH20s and the other BP carbs on my 2.5 carb motors. They work great.

I've heered tha 15'z called big bore's also...I have sum, and run them on tha pro 120 mota(2.0)...They were good for tha top(juss like wh-20's), but didn't leeve az good az tha 22's...BUT, tha larger ci mota's seen to leeve better wit tha big bore carbs(15's and 20's)
