Yes, it is impressive what performance can be had out of a carbie that resembles four buckets tied together and over 500cubes of highly tuned induction system...enough to suck the air out of a 20ft container in a minute.

Okta, thanks for that. Pilots are so use to revs held static by the prop and having to watch manifold pressure where diesels fuel up the instant the load comes on...counterintuitive.
