not really

but it WILL make your car go up steep hills even with a low gas tank, and make "vapor lock" a thing of the past. You will never encounter a "9 gallon hill" again, with a float valve that REALLY FLOWS. If you're really unsure if they work, just ask the guy who just passed you on your next tour, or one of the many many Forum users who have already taken the plunge.

I am the designer, the manufacturer, and sole source for these valves. Beware of imitations.

As always, INQUIRE VIA EMAIL THROUGH THE MTFCA WEBSITE - NOT MESSAGING

QUESTIONS ALMOST ALWAYS RESPONDED TO THE SAME DAY

Thank you

If you don’t have one in your NH, you better get one. Great product! Thanks for making it Scott.

And just like that....., "The Grand Master of Micro Machining" pops out of his burrow to see if he is needed! Yes Scott your services are beyond needed and are a must! Rock On Brother!

I haven't had luck with these valves. I wonder if the additives in the California gasoline has something to do with it?

Looks like it

AI BOT
Specific gravity (SG) is a measurement of how dense an object or substance is compared to water, and it's used to determine if something will float or sink.

California gasoline typically has a slightly higher specific gravity compared to regular gasoline in other regions due to the mandatory addition of oxygenates like ethanol, which are slightly denser than the hydrocarbons in standard gasoline, resulting in a slightly heavier fuel mix; however, the overall difference in specific gravity is usually small and within the normal range for gasoline

Smith has never purchased any valves from me.

Someone needs a bubble wrap re-enforced bandaid!

I have two of these valves in straight thru NH carbs and they work flawlessly. No longer run out of gas on a hill unless the gas in the tank is stupidly low!

I'm having trouble getting an email or message to Scott Conger regarding ordering full flow float valve for an NH straight through model T carburetor - can anyone direct me ???

Jamie

your email came through and I have responded, so check your email

thank you

Hi, how much each?, and could I have 4 please. And do you take paypal. Cheers

Unlike some folks, I will not bump this ad every other day. Every couple of weeks is fine.

Don't wait until the week before your summer tour. Get your car ready while the weather is still cool.

This ad is being bumped after 4 weeks of dormancy, hopefully is an example to folks who feel that bumping their own ad every 2 days and driving everyone else's out of sight is really clever. It really isn't. If folks want what you have, they'll find it and buy it, regardless of how often you pimp it.

See you in a few weeks or months

I'd be interested in purchasing two.

SCOTT
i WILL TAKE THREE

Six week bump

not one week
not every other day
six weeks

last chance to be ready for the National Tours

Scott,
I don't know if you did this before but is there a writeup somewhere that shows the difference in float valves and how they work? I've got a 26 so my tank is always above the carb. Some new guys may benefit from your expertise. Including me.

other than Dan Treace doing a write up of my valve in the club magazine a few years ago I know of no one who has ever done a comparison of valves. I can state with certainty, though, that every valve offered commercially (other than mine), has a through-hole that is sized for a modern car using a fuel pump. They are made by major manufacturers whose primary market is for modern cars, and our NH valve was simply an adaptation of every other valve they make (and they all need fuel pumps to operate properly).

My valve is specifically designed for the very low head pressure in a Model T, and the generally higher constant speeds that we run at.

As an example, here is a picture of a disassembled Grose Jet (valve) next to my valve and you'll see that the Grose Jet has a 25% smaller hole than mine which works out to nearly a 50% reduction of flow area. Every other valve has a similarly mis-proportioned body as well.

Thanks so much Scott Now I know!!!! Thanks for all you do for the hobby.
