Got to drive an SV1 equiped car today......

All i have to say is wow.

71 torino
527 ford bigblock
ported kaase scj heads
not supposed to disclose the cam specs but over 750 lift with "alot" of duration
Built AOD(sold on getting one of these for my car too)
3300 stall converter.

the thing idled down at 725 rpms in gear and never stumbled, never hesitated, had good maners going to the gas station too
IDC what the price tag is im getting one.

$1,200+ already talked to Patrick at prosystems

Good to know ...has he taken it to the track yet ?? does he have any before or after documentation ?

yea i got my quote too in about that range.
he said he picked up about 45 hp on the chasis dyno.
he also expects to shave about 2 tenths off with the new setup because it doesnt lag or stumble anymore.
his previous carb was a prosystem as well

Nice. I like the idea of these carbs. If I wasn't going efi I'd try one.

Who did his tranny? What "approximate" times does he run?

same guy in Mo that you suggested i talk to

he ran in the low low 10's before now this carb may break the 9 barrier he says

nice! is his car online anywhere? is it on the clickclick site? would like to read about it...OR, get us more details

I told him to drop by the site and sign up when he gets a chance

he did warn me though that he does drop his AOD every year and a half and freshens the clutches up.

1) any updates on this car?


2) Patrick at ProSystems used your quote on his site, you're famous!

"From 429-460.com forum - maddmattmustangs - I drove a friends SV1 equipped street car today, 527 c.i. with a BIG 750 roller cam, idles at 725 rpm! The SV1 never stumbles, never hesitates..all I have to say about the SV1 is WOW!"

I ordered one Monday for my new 598. Should have it next week!

awesome...let us know how it works out for you!

lol famous?
yea theres updates on the car, he hasnt had alot of time to work out his traction issues since he added the SV1
on his best pass it averaged a tenth faster with spinning through the first 60 ft or so.

He thinks that his peak torque didnt go up alot more at peak maybe 20-30 tq but his area under the curve is much better apparrently


If i get off in time saturday ill drop in on em and call him for extra details.

valleydawg, Please post up when you get it and make some passes, Id love to see this thing run in a sole race only application.

maybe i should call Patrick up and do a carb swap at the bash .......

Guys, I will be "debuting" a SV1 on my new N/A 514 CI motor next week........will post a lot of info then.

Heard the SV1 picked up 15 hp over a Pro Systems carb on a 598 at Kaases dyno. Heard only good things from the Kaase group.

Another idea, I'll volunteer to trade in my old Pro Systems 4150 for a SV1 and do the street/strip testing of the new carb and report on the improvement!
I'd be more than happy for Patrick to use any of my quotes on his website! Patrick claims that it's a great street carb, I've got the perfect car to do his testing on.

One BadAzz 1bbl...LOL....

Would be awesome to have 1 or 2 samples at the bash people can throw on for testing!

Feet, definitely do a write up on what you learn about the SV1.

Im considering running the SV1 on my Cleveland stroker and running it head to head against a 4 barrel carb, should provide some good feedback on streetability. Its hard as hell to keep a small block streetable at even 550 hp.
