During the SEMA show we told you about one of the more interesting new parts that a company had displayed. We’re talking about the Edelbrock AVS2 carb that takes the iconic AVS series piece and updates it with annular primary flow boosters for improved performance in a multitude of driving situations. Kind of neat that an iconic piece like this one can actually be updated and improved upon after as many years as it has been on the marked and the millions of engines that they have topped. We understand that the company moves more than 30,000 carbs a year, which is an incredible number!
The AVS2 features the same Air Valve Secondary that made the AVS so popular and it is a carb that is designed for easy tuning to meet your application’s needs. Every engine likes things its own way depending on a myriad of factors like the camshaft, intake, and cylinder heads so the ability to dial this baby in is paramount.
Here’s the full story from Edelbrock –
Edelbrock AVS2 Series Carburetor |
| Torrance, CA – {November 15, 2017} Edelbrock is excited to announce the AVS2 Series as the next generation of their carburetor product line. The AVS2 carburetor features annular flow primary boosters with a new calibration for improved off-idle and cruising performance.The annular flow booster design delivers improved fuel atomization to eliminate flat spots that may be encountered when the carburetor transitions from idle to full throttle. Each annular booster features eight, equally-spaced orifices to improve fuel metering from idle to the main. The improved flow metering makes this carburetor ideal for use with a wide variety of small-block and big-block engines with either dual- or single-plane intake manifolds. This new square-flange carburetor is available in 650 cfm with electric choke (#1906) or manual choke (#1905). These carburetors also feature: metering jets – Primary .101, Secondary .098; metering jets – .070 x .037; step-up spring – orange (5″ Hg). Like the Edelbrock Thunder Series AVS carburetor, this new design also retains the Air Valve Secondary for quick fine tuning across the RPM range for optimal performance. AVS2 carburetors are intended for use on pre-pollution controlled vehicles only. This includes all vehicles that were manufactured before emissions control regulations were imposed. |
