reading thru the article brought up a question here again in regards to hat clocking
making or reducing power and it should be used as a tuning tool???
from the article:
19. Baker recommends thinking of the hat or bonnet as a tuning tool; rotating it could cost or make power!

**Naturally, there are more variables. For example, rather than an air filter, a carburetor in a blow-through system wears a pressure hat. And Baker says even the angle of this hat can make a difference. “We’re talking 60 and 70hp worth of difference,” he says. “To be honest, it’s a black-magic science. I can’t tell you why, but it’s happened to me three times. But guys will call saying the car just lays over. Well, we can rotate the hat like 20 degrees and then you can’t keep the tires under it.”**

on my car the hat is clocked at about 4-oclock because that was a straight shot from the charge tube to the carb,
i would have issues trying to clock the current hat at 6 or 12-oclock due to the balance hose&fittings on the carb bowls..

anyone have good info on this or dyno results?
