King of 4150 Carbs? Edelbrock VRS-4150 Tunnel Ram Track Test Steel in Motion 2024

- Опубліковано 28 гру 2024
- This weekend by Buddy Micah helped me get Casper the Ford F100 ready to hit the track so we could see how well the new Edelbrock VRS-4150 Carburetors work out of the box.
I put Micah in Casper and on his 3rd pass he nailed down the fastest pass ever in Casper!
Having had a set of race prepped Holley 750 Dominators I knew the bar would be set high...
in the end we were both impressed!

I wouldnt be caught dead with the old edlebrock carb on anything i owned but the vrs4150 looks like its worth having
That truck is very strong, even at high DA. It's good to hear those carbs worked out so well. I'm amazed that a C4 holds up to this, I know it's modded, but still. The truck looks and sounds great going down the track, even my wife who was in the room as a I watched commented on how good it sounds.
LOL, Uncle Tony doesn't have a chance now. Nice little track you have there, and that truck was hauling, nice job.
He never did😂
Don't sleep on uncle Tony.
Tony doesn't want any of this now... Lol
@@UnityMotorSportsGarage Oh so you got the caspermatic in?
Wow. Those Edelbrocks run very well for out of the box. I have one on my work truck and tweaked it from 11mpg to just short of 14mpg. (75 F250 2wd 390 4bbl stock exhaust logs) Strange the idle was lean and the main was rich. Anyway, great to see you running hard. Keep up the great work. Thanks for sharing. Long time fan.
Big ol girl is moving Andy, kudos👌🏼🏁
Thanks Brother!
Glad you did this before transmission swap! Like you said you have to see how it performs with the same setup so you know the difference it made!
That is why I did it this way.. just trying to learn what is what... Thanks for watching Landon!
Andy
I really like how this guy drives!!! He’s a real driver
Andy, Thanks for the shoutout my friend, it was a memory building weekend for us! I love your videos and the real world testing. As always, looking forward to the next one.
Well done Andy!
Thanks Don!
Andy
Well, I must say I love this channel. Andy, you seem like a real no b.s down to earth fella. Always enjoy your content and real life testing. 👍
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm just trying to learn like always and bring you folks along with me!
Thanks for watching
Andy
That's one good running truck
It's getting there!
Andy
Sounds really good Andy...she is pulling clean right through the rev range.
Thanks for watching Dave! It runs hard
Andy
Sounds sweet and it looks like you have the suspension dialed in. It really hooks. Glad you got the Drivers Side view.
You should've done this as a premiere. That first pass sounded clean.
I probably should have... I never do those so I didn't think about it
Andy
Love this truck Andy, great to see it again! Absolutely awesome 👌
Thanks for the kind words! I can't wait for the NNN
Andy
@@UnityMotorSportsGarage I wish I could make it to them, I'm right next door in northern illernoise! 😄
Sounded like it had some great runs,certainly looked fast, and sound great to, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones
Tunnelram Mafia!😮
Thanks for taking us along with you. Those passes were awesome! If you are willing to give out your secrets... 🙂 Do you have a video on how you've set up the rear of the truck, tire/wheel, traction, differential, etc? I have a DaVinci carb now but I need to put the VRS on my wishlist.
I see Suttle upgrades on Casper, NICE. Thanks for your time and effort on these videos.
Congratulations on the runs, great for sure. Impressive carbs for out of the box.
Great runs! Go Casper!
Thanks Brother, hope all is well your way!
Andy
chicks dig old Fords 😎👍
It worked on the wife! 😆
Andy
Congrats looks and sounds great
I like Fords but lm more of a chevy fan ,but i love this Ford, It's got to be a blast to drive.
Thanks for the Kind words! Hey I've built many bad GM motors in my day... Nothing wrong with that. I love driving CASPER it's a blast
Andy
Awesome Truck! Awesome Motor!!
Have you ever thought about running it at an NMRA event? They have a class for Ford Trucks!
Dang! Wicked Street Truck. Those are the times and 60ft times I was seeing with the Jackpine Savage. It had a spragless converter… always wondered what it would have done with a sprag converter.
Thanks! From all of my experience I have always seen a difference of about a .15-20 and a 1-2 mph. That is in the 1/8
Not bad at all, 99 in the top of the 1/8 mile and pulling the wheels on an I beam pickup?
And yeah, the Edelbrock carbs rock, you just know they did their homework on those before they turned em loose on the gearheads. That's how they roll.
Thanks, I think my biggest eyeopener was how the truck can leave at Idle and just mat the throttle.. MIXED UP BOSS is making some serious torque with those carbs!
Andy
@UnityMotorSportsGarage carbs are working right off idle and that torque converter is coming through for ya!
Sooooo happy for you! Hard to believe that companies have improved the Holley carburetors like they have.
That is a great great carb. I'm in northern CA and they love our sea level air. Hard to imagine Holley leaving so many improvements on the table. Did holley get complacent or lazy? Was good deemed good enough? Edelbrock took holleys lunch.
I still think it is pretty cool that we got to see those carbs built right in front of us.
We saw you make a few runs saturday. Looks and sounds awesome!!
Thanks Brother! I had fun it was nice meeting you and your son
Andy
Awesome looks good going down the track.
Thanks Brother! It felt good letting CASPER do work
Andy
Truck sounds clean Andy. Is the 1.48 60 a PB also? On paper with the weather and BP and right converter and maybe some mineshaft weather I think 6.50s could be in the near future. Good luck brother and another great video. Mika is the man and I love watching the wagon run also.
Yeah the 1.48 is a PB also.. good air and this thing is going to roll!
Andy
Casper is one badass truck👍!
It is so very cool to see your truck go down the 660 ! It truly looks fabulous and runs quite well for 4000 lbs. Seems like the Eddy carbs work well. I would like to try one. PS. 🙏 There must be a couple hundred pounds of scrap metal on that truck somewhere.
Great running little ford ,
Man that engine runs really strong !! Hell ya - what CFM are those carbs? I think I know what carb Im gona run on my next big block - congrats on haulin ass
Thanks for watching
They are 750's
Andy
Now that’s a good day!
Yes it was a great day. Had fun didn't break anything
Andy
Strong runs! Congrats on the wheelie! Thanks for painting the underside of the hood!
Thanks! Joe did a great job on the paint! I like it much better
Andy
I have a 77 f100 with a very mild 460 in it a5 speed and its on 175 shot of nitrous … i liked it so good i built a fresh 460 thats going to be a beast .. I’ve just let it sit for a few years .. after watching this video i think ill fire the ole truck up n drive it down to the garage n just put the new 460 in … its a 71 block with dove heads and it has all aftermarket rotating assembly with flat tops . The heads have bigger valves it has a stealth intake on it and my choice of whatever holley works .. i have. 250 nitrous kit or i could put twin turbos on it .. if i just run it without a power adder its still going to be a fun lil motor after watching this video i simply cant wait !!!
I’m a Mopar guy but that is one sweet truck. And she can boogie too.
Thanks for the kind words! I'm a Mopar guy at heart...
Andy
I'm a chevy guy and I love this truck
Nice work Andy
Have a VRS 750 going on my rpm air gaped 347
I'm sure you will like it!
Andy
On the @12:20 point run... slight flair up in the 2-3 shift. (momentary, but discernible overlap) don't know if a band adjustment would trim that out or not. (release time) Quick for a heavy truck, sure yanks the H out of those twin I beams. 😀
Andy that is the reason for the CASPER-MATIC that is going in!
Andy
Nice job man hey have you ever gone over the complete engine build in the truck like what parts are used and how much power it makes ?
Thanks! I have a complete playlist on the MIXED UP BOSS ua-cam.com/play/PLTTy0v-QJLKw9DUuo6pg3bj4PpChtwYmT.html&si=R6PFrn3PNnVyFcJ6
Hey buddy we are having a car show in Greenville this Saturday. You should come hang out with us.
Love the tests can't relate to 1/8 mile drags,only 1/4mile.thanks.
@jims2286- A 6.86 @ 99 Mph in the 1/8th, prob. around 10.70's, & approx. 122 Mph in the 1/4 mile. Hope that helps?
What transmission and rear gear ratio are you running Andy, Thanks for sharing 👍
Andy you have got yourself a Baad Baad Hot Rod pick up!
Team Edelbrock for the win ! 🏁
Getting faster all the time 👍
Casper 🏁
Yes Sir Go Team Edelbrock!
I wonder if you took the filters off at the track?
No, but I plan on doing some testing.. once the transmission goes in
Andy
@@UnityMotorSportsGarage
I am really considering one of those for my engine, count me in for a donation. Lol
Love that big block sound and I'm a SBC guy but that thang sounds mean
Hey Andy Casper is ripping. Thanks for the video especially the slow mo picking the tires up. What's your thoughts on 1800 launch rpm?👍
So far looks like the VRS is the best in the market
Casper coming to Sikeston?
Sounds good anyway.
That’s what counts .
Soc engine! Yeeee hawwww! Hope u have the gear drive, timing chains suck on those, probably the only weak point on the ford Hemi. Still love em though.👍👍👍👍💯✌️
What's causing the little ramp into third gear?
A C4 Transmission that is on its last leg... 😆 High gear Clutches
Andy
I saw air under the tires.....
Yes Sir!
Badass Ford truck
So just out of curiosity why did you change the carburetors from Holley to Edelbrock
When these Carbs came out and I saw how much tunable they were.. I wanted to give them a try. So I went to the Edelbrock Factory and saw how they build them and got me a pair..
Andy
That Caspermatic is never going in lol
I have 3 weeks before it's rock and roll time! NoNameNationals time
Andy
💪💪💪
Reaction time looks slow ?
We really wasn't concerned with Reaction times.. just trying to A to B
Thanks for watching
Andy
It's sorta hard to believe that after all the time , effort , and cubic dollars you put into the twin Dominator setup ...out of the box Edelbrocks run at least as good . Not only that , I've heard similar reports from guys running them on much different combinations . 350 , 383 , 454 , 351 cubic inches on a variety of intake manifolds ....and they all say " Great , right out of the box " . We've all heard the expression ' You cant be all things to all people ' ? Well , it sounds like Edelbrock found a way . Best of luck to ya in the future , be safe ....and fast .
I'm running one on my 68 Thunderbird with 429 Thunderjet and totally love it! Same right out of the box no adjustment necessary!
Great out of the box means what..? To who..? What are the numbers..? Would love see the fast system Andy is using to give us REAL numbers. The carb he is testing now is not good out of the box he said himself it was rich. What about idle.? What about cruise. No carb is good out of the box if you know how to tune it.
I think you would get a better mileperhour, especially in a 1/4 mile run if you cover the bed on Casper!!!
You the man
Don't know about all that..
Andy
Ol Casper is one of the baddest trucks on the internet…
Can’t wait until it has a trans brake…
Sucker will have the tires hangin a foot!
👍🏻🤘🏻👏🏻
Are those 750's??. What boosters? What jetting??
How did project sleeper do?
That's alright Jeb the other guy candrive.
very nice
Hey andy do you plan on going to buckfest on the 21st? might be a different scene but its at shadyside
Andy Wood gotta Hot Rod!😂
It's getting there...
Andy
@@UnityMotorSportsGarage my guy, your truck runs the equivalent of 10.70s in the quarter mile, naturally aspirated. And you haven't messed with the carbs and timing yet. Great job!
Super Coo!l 😎
How much do u want for the C-4 with and without converter ,,, ? ,,, also what CFM are these carbs ,,, ?
Are those Edelbrock's setup for tunnel rams?
To my knowledge they don't have a Tunnel Ram specific package but they should offer one. At WOT it's running around 11.9-12.3 so I would imagine it should pickup once I lean it out a bit
Thanks for watching
Andy
I need to figure out if a 850vrs would be enough for my 481. It’s around 600/650hp. Can’t afford a pair of them though.
I wouldn't hesitate running a 850 on that combo...
Andy
@@UnityMotorSportsGarage thanks I’m really liking the reviews I’m seeing on the VRS carbs. They seem to just work.
@UnityMotorSportsGarage I have a 6.0L LY6 making 525hp at the crank and was wondering if the 650 would work better then the 750 on the street.
Congratulations truck is getting it done Ford power forever baby a real Chevy and dodge killer the best never rest they just keep getting better has a Ford blu by you later
Ford to the front!
Thanks for watching
Andy
Hey Andy, are you going to the no name nationals??
Yes I should be there mid day Thursday!
I gota be honest , every carberator runs best out of the box!
Why does he snap the throttle twice before taking off?
Andy congratulations on your progress :man SHE AINT NO TURD FOR SURE :BUT I HAVE A THOUGHT ! I THINK IF YOU FOUND A DECENT ROLLER FOX BODY MUSTANG AN STUFFED ALL THE GOODIES INTO IT : MAN THAT WOULD BE A HIGH 9 SEC AND MAYBE A HIGH 8 SEC 1/4 PASS :TRUCKS ARE HEAVY AND THE TWIN I BEAMS ARE REALLY NOT IDEAL RACERS :BUT HATS OF TO YOU AND YOUR TEAM BC YOU MADE IT WORK AND MAKING A HUGE STATEMENT : I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A BIG FAN OF ELDERBROCK products they have been tested an proven to outperform most aftermarket products :AGAIN ELDERBROCK HAS DONE THEIR HOMEWORK AND ITS AMERICAN MADE ALSO : ONE BAD ASS TRUCK PERIOD :GREAT VIDEO ANDY :your friend from sanford nc :- jimmy
You’re already out of tire, how are you going to hook with the new trans?!?😂
I can make it hook in a Mud Puddle.. 😆 that last run didn't have a good burnout
Andy
What does Casper actually weigh? Can you imagine that in a 3,000-pound fox or falcon?
CASPER with me in it 4180 so 4080ish with Micah driving. It would be a high 5 sec car in the 1/8th, 8 sec 1/4 on motor.. in a Fox
Thanks for watching
Andy
You need to drive the truck to get a real comparison 🤔
I wanna drive casper,
Old Ford is running. .
It's doing pretty good..
Andy
👍👍👍👍
PROJECT! NEVER! EVER! 318! DYNO!
👍
She’s a screamer
🥝✔️
those pee shooter air cleaners are probably losing 50 hp
Not convinced until you put WELL TUNED 2 CIRCUIT dommys on it.
Tunnelram Mafia!😮
To the Front! Thanks for watching
