Keep showing your ignorance, and how little you know I am getting a great laugh.
They stick from the seal warping from the extreme heat they see at WOT at high RPM's if the tune is too lean, but it doesnt happen over night... IE, one run wont do it. But 30-40 runs down the track take its toll quickly this way. Like it did on the 2 I have on the floor of the shop right now.

And if I seem rude to morons who do sit here and puke out misinformation about the subject, it's because of all the carbs that were actually built to beat lap times, and all the ones destined for REAL track cars, none of the half assed, shade-tree tuning logic found in this thread was used at all... Just simple booster and circuit calibration. No cutting, hacking, drilling, or any of that racket.


You stupid stupid stupid JERK!

No cutting hacking or drilling to tune your 13second nitrous bridge port piece of junk. We have gone 12.0 in a bridge port starlet holley carbed and 10 seconds with nitrous. You are a f*%7ing loser.

You can not build a holley for the street without cutting the trans slot. What don't you get! If you idle you holley and the trans slot is not visible below the throttle blade it will lean out as soon as the trans slot is reaching vacuum.
That leaves you with 2 options
1. cutting the trans slot
2. leaving the idle ridiculously Hi for the street.

READ ANY HOLLEY TUNING BOOK THE TRANS SLOT MUST BE VISIBLE AT IDLE. Extending the trans slot is the exact opposite of drilling a hole in the throttle blade to stay in position with the trans slot on a cammed v8. As drilling a hole will work for a large cammed v8 setting a 900rpm idle for a rotary and then extending the trans slot is what works on are cars.

This is not a hack job and tuning the emulsion circuit is not necessary for pump gas as holley has done a good job of this for you.

The upgrades to my carb are simple.

1. 9776 450cfm
pink cam shaved. Adjusting the spring like you said hurts low end throttle response because the spring is too soft and compresses instead of shooting fuel.
2. 28 shooter
3.double step boosters. yes I have the tool to press them in it was $300
4.extended trans slot necessary for smooth low idle.
5. idle air bleeds that give you some controll over the low end air fuel ratio before the main booster kicks in.
6. jet extensions something you really need to learn about if you are having trouble on the interstate turn ramps. LOL
7. secondary metering block , can't rejet a stock metering plate.

You are major loser and I feel very bad for anybody you have done carb work for.
You have failed where I have succeeded, You are a major chode!!!!

YOU SHOULD BE HAPPY THERE ARE PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO CAN HELP YOU.
Why not just use a 40$ AED Jet plate so you can swap jets without spending the extra $$$ on a metering block that has a "universal" emulsions tune? You can put jet extensions on them too, if you really want to...

And the installation of idle air bleeds to change them from stock DOES require drilling and tapping, unless youre just going bigger in which case you'd just drill them out (Like RB).

And the cornering issues with these isnt just my experience, its the most common one. If the floats are adjusted to the directed level by Holley, or RB; then the fuel does slosh around very badly on hard cornering and rapid changes of direction, like what you'd see for even mild Auto-X. If you set it low, you're compromising the holley metering design... Changing the fuel bowls and adding jet extensions can help, but it wont work for every corner. Mine still missed and carried on as I'd quoted before, on long exit ramps the float would get stuck up and then the engine would just consume the fuel bowl and start to die before g-load on the car would normalize allowing the float to drop and refill. And thats not just RX-7's, thats typical for the Holley carb on any application that faces the fuel bowls towards the fenders.

Uh no, the apex seal springs flatten out from the heat. I ran my car to 10,000 rpm's everyday for YEARS.

I took this information back to Jim M., who commented that he was unaware of those changes, and that bench testing the carbs they dont actually run them on an engine, they just do a thorough inspection of the mods made, and check for the correct orifice sizing etc. He said he would attend the dyno testing on the "customers car" which turned out to be a pettit dyno mule.
Of course they wouldn't dyno every modified carb, they modify their original test carb and build all the others to the same spec.

Off idle the engine would even cut out and die occasionally. We watched as they removed the first carb to do a direct swap to the 2nd carb I was mailed, and it had similar issues, but interestingly enough was judged as only "8 sizes lean".

End the end, It was Jim M.'s call to bypass the power valve circuit (which they had always used on stockport carbs) and jet from a 49 to a 58. This solved most of the problems, but ran it so pig rich and gave it such shitty throttle response that it felt like the car was downgraded.
So it seems the power valve was a problem not the jetting as after the PV was addressed the car ran rich, as I said. We played with the power valves, different metering plates, different jet sizes years ago. If the car wasn't running correctly why didn't you just sniff the exhaust and play with it?

So a bone stock car, no porting went from basically 85 rwhp to 117 rwhp, a 38% increase in hp with just a header and a carb and that is bad? RB claimed ~ 140 with their carb and a header in their brochures. It is performing just as advertised.

Jim M. commented to me that the changes Holley made to the PVC and low speed circuits for better fuel economy to the standard 465 was responsible for the lack of performance. He also said that thanks to my dyno time and 2 tested carbs, that the jetting and mods would change slightly to better suit the tune.

However, after buying yet ANOTHER in 2012 brand new from RB that had the SAME ISSUES, and went through the same damn problems with, I vowed to never do business with them again. The brand new RB 465 I bought in Oct, 2012 still sits on a shelf in my shop. I made a thread here about my experiences with it and virtually did what Jim did to fix it. Jet it way up, bypass power valve, and lived with its terrible performance for over a year of daily driving.
So basically you have had problems, nobody else I know of has and your problems still made the hp they advertised. I and nobody else ever had the stalling issues, horrible gas mileage issues in the past or recently. Matter of fact we are getting ready to put one on and we will see if we have all the problems you have. Want to bet we don't?

That was grasping and it was you that suggested here as if it was your idea.

Both my car, and pettits mule were running the long primary (streetport) exhaust system.

And I have an '83 nikki right now on an SA manifold with the very same everything (same car) producing 127 RWHP. And it still has vac secondaries, and is still getting me 19 MPG . Plus it has no issues with cornering thanks to a couple tricks I learned from Siranko, then Wackyracer.

It isnt a stock nikki, but the holley isnt a stock nikki either. If that makes sense.

Ill be catching the end of DGRR tonight if you want a ride in it. Lol.

Didn't get to post for a while, had a bit of a speed bump, sorry this thread caused a flame war. But thank you everyone for the input.

I'm pretty sure to try out the edelbrock first since it sounds like an easy slap on compared to the tuning holley would require. If there is anything to tune, I do want to tune the stock nikki carb.

Still running into a bit of a budget, since the city gave me a citation for working on my car in public view. I need to now worry about investing in a hedge around my house and consider a canvas car port.

luimi I still want to see that holley though! After I replace my differential (bent axle) I will reach out to you.

This thread has been pure entertainment from start to finish. Its incredible that as adults and rotary devotees we don't show each other a measure of respect even if our views and opinions differ. Name calling is childish guys, come on! The OP still hasn't gotten a proper answer to his question! LOL
On a side note, anyone willing to sell or donate an "RB paper weight" that he no longer needs is free to pass it in my direction (4 port, 13b)

Yeah this thread has gotten off topic and has become childish.
Can't believe I missed deals gap, I thaught it would be later in the year

So if I was the OP reading this I would
1. Buy a nice exhaust and mod the Nikki for the stock 12a ports
2. Then port the engine and buy a holley or go EFI.

Well I called Racing and talked to Jim and guess what ? wankel=awesome is a liar, as I said.

Jim said "wankel=awesome" purchased a Holley, complained about it so RB said send it back and they will check it out, ignoring the fact you (wankel=awesome) took it all apart without a clue what you were doing. ("you screwed it up")

Racing Beat, specifically Jim, arranged to have a customers car to use to test your carb on. You (wankel=awesome) never sent the carb. You then called back and said the problem was the distributor in the car and it was fixed. Then six months later you called back again complaining and RB said they don't have time for your Shenanigans anymore, and to go away.

You never flew out there. Jim said he would pay you 100 grand if you can prove it and he called you a liar. They never dynoed anything and the 117 RWHP dyno was a lie in the fact they only have and use an engine dyno.

You also used your brothers credit card to pay for the carb and tried to get the carb sent to your address.

Jim is sending me your invoice with all his notes which I will gladly post when I get it.

So in short, you are a pathological liar, you are giving out bad information and your knowledge is worthless. Jim said you don't have a clue about the carbs and the cars in general.

Jim said their 465 Holly's run perfect as they always have and matter of fact they sold out half way through the year, they work as advertised. There is a reason Racing Beat has been in business for 43 years.

Oh Jim T. said to call him.

To the OP, the RB carbs work fantastic, I used them personally for 20 plus years. I used them in my stock ported cars and in my modified cars. I used them with street ports, with blowers and Nitrous oxide injected systems (150-220 hp shots). They are reliable and they are easy to jet as you modify. It would probably be ideal for your use. Although you wouldn't need to re-jet for street and racing. Plug and play.

Do the oil inj mod though.

There was no "Pettit mule", Jim laughed at that btw.

Why would I want a ride in a car with a 1/3 of the power my FB made decades ago none the less my current FD?

Do the oil inj mod though.
can you link to the oil inj mod you are specifically talking about? sounds like a good read.

only prob with RB carbs is that it would cost an extra couple hundred to get that set up, since they value it as "brand new"

I don't see anything wrong with the edelbrock though, and personally have seen them in shops (as well as mikuni, but I don't like mikuni)

If you can swing it it's worth it. If I were you this is what I would do.

1) Put on a header/reputable like Racing Beats and if you can afford it do the entire exhaust.

2) Get the RB 465, if you can't do it just use the stock Nikki until you can. (We would used a bread tie on the secondaries on the Nikki's to make them mechanical)

3) Light weight steel flywheel. Made a huge difference as the mass is spread out equally, couldn't tell the difference between the steel and the lighter aluminum one.

4) Also do other stuff like plug wires, hotter ignition coils, air cleaner etc. Be sure to watch the plugs as they go down hill and sometime you don't notice it and of course change your fuel filter.

Hilariously enough, you and he are describing a different customer. Which honestly doesnt surprise me in the first place, considering if they sold out on those pieces of crap they probably had plenty of bitching customers to listen to.

The last carb I bought from RB was in the winter of 2012, and that carb was purchased under a local transmission shop as payment for work I had done for a local rx-3 owner.

And with that carb, I called 1 time after bringing my issues with it here on the forums and mostly getting it squared away. Calling them with that carb resulted in only talking to Jim T about rebuilding it for "possible dirt cloggage" which wasnt helpful at all, in fact I didnt do that and just plugged the power valve and jetted it up like we had done on my previous carb 3 years prior. Some time later, I was offered to buy another one of those carbs when my throttle shafts in that carb looked like crap after just a few thousand miles.

The carb I had the most problems with wasnt a recent purchase at all, as it happened over 5 years ago now. And I did make many phone calls leading up to my flight out there, and almost a year of over-the-phone troubleshooting and them repeatedly blaming a then fresh mazda rebuild@75k miles...

I also dug up the thread related to the last carb I bought, as it is nowhere near the situation you or he described lol

Luimi is actually in the middle of jetting that carb right now, his carb was a SP 465, and he later found out his motor was a stockport. I gave him the base stockport RB jetting and power valve arrangement but I dont know how hes making out with it.

I'd sugest moving out of that city. You own an RX7 now so thats not gonna be the last time you work on it.


Edelbrocks are great carbs. Just not the most fuel effeciant and not the best to boost through.



BTW this thread is a hilarious flame war.

No it isn't, it's you and you know it. I described part of the thread and Jim knew exactly who you were and recalled everything, including the part to about testing the carb on a car and even you in the service. There is only two ways he could know this, he read this thread or he knew you and guess which one it was?

He described it perfectly and all the problems they have had with you and they line up perfectly with your threads. They knew you and started laughing, they said NOBODY else has had the problems, no one, you are it.

Yes it is, especially post #36 and #37! Jim Described that exactly on the phone today, I mean exactly. Guess what Liar, I talked to Jim, Jim Tanner.

Jim Tanner and the others knew who you were instantly, described what you posted here in your thread to a tea, but of course without your lies. It's you, you got caught lying and now you are trying to lie again and say it was someone else. You are fooling no one.

So explain your post (lies) :
First, they DON'T go to any tuners, they are the tuners.

They DON'T have a chasis dyno and they have never done anything remotely close to what you described so you LIED.

You said they dynoed 117 rwhp, tell us how did you get 117 rwhp ?

Also, why don't you tell us where you, Jim Tanner and Racing Beat dynoed the "Pettit mule" at? Who was the supposed "tuner"? ( They were laughing at that one as well.) They said it NEVER happened.


He said they have had ZERO problems from anyone else using their 465's and knew you by name. He also knew where you were from.

I'm considering if risking the $100 - $500 daily tickets is worth it...
after the hedge or carport I will see. Otherwise I need to sell my fathers goldcrafting equipment and replace it with car dremels, sander units and welding stations!

No seriously though, I need to get into welding.

Look, all flaming and stupidity aside, you are barking up the wrong tree here. I am not the person or situation related to this, seriously. And you and Jim posting what is someone elses personal information or experiences (that were also apparently negative) publicly here says a lot for the company. You say he knows this person by name... any chances his name was Gerald? And where did he say he was from?

I would also suggest that in the interest of you, or Jim that if we want to get into a battle of identity it should be handled elsewhere, not in this thread.

Nice try, you got caught LYING, bottom line. It is you and you know it. Why do you think it was Gearld, I mean you know nothing about this right? Why do you care if something is posted , it's not you right?


Lets review:

*You said you went to Racing Beat and both Jim Mederer and Jim Tanner where there, that was a lie.

*You said you flew out to Racing Beat and your car was tuned on a Pettit Mule, Multiple lies.

*You said the car made 117 RWHP, another lie they don't have a chasis dyno.

That''s just a couple of your lies.

Of course when asked you can't answer to these lies.

Listen kid, I would suggest "that in the interest of you" you quite lying and making false claims and disparaging businesses.
