Dennis Barker Unveils New
Technology for Rochester Carburetors
Recently,
at the SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) Show in Las Vegas,
Dennis Barker of Barker Gang Garage revealed his new Rochester Quadrajet
Carburetor Un-warping Tool, and Throttle Shaft Bushing Kits. Automotive
industry members showed overwhelming response.
Basalt,
CO (PRWEB) March 3, 2005 -- Dennis Barker builds Hot Rods, Muscle Cars,
and he designed the first electric Jeep Top for Wranglers out of a four
bay automotive customizing shop in Basalt, near Aspen, Colorado. It is
also at the Barker Gang Garage that Dennis invented the first Rochester
Quadrajet Carburetor Un-warping Tool, and the Barker Throttle
Shaft Bushing Kit. After years of frustration, mechanics and other
automotive industry professionals are now able to solve the vacuum leak
issues associated with the Quadrajet Carburetor. This new technology does
improve emission test results, and the overall performance, and will make
carburetor rebuilding easier, and much more reliable.
At the SEMA show more than 250 Distributors signed up to market both these
new products. "The hunger for parts and techniques to improve the
defects in the Quadrajet Carburetor, which resulted in years of rebuilding
problems has skyrocketed,” noted Dennis Barker, President of Barker Gang
Garage. “That prompted us to offer a line of Rochester carburetor parts
and tools that we have been using during the past 25 years for those who
enjoy wrenching on their cars as much as driving them when the Quadrajet
is working right. Simply put, all Quadrajets are warped and have loose
throttle shafts, and the only chance of repairing them to work correctly
is by using these new parts and tools.”
Mario Sturde, Market Development Manager for Barker Gang Garage, explains
how it works, “Once a straight edge is held between the front two bolt
holes on the air horn
and float bowl surfaces of a Rochester Quadrajet
Carburetor, the warpage is easily seen. Also a warped Quadrajet that’s
mounted to an intake manifold is usually 200% more warped than when
removed, due to the front two bolts applying additional pressure. Once the
Quadrajet Carburetor has gone through our un-warping process, it is almost
impossible to warp it again, allowing the front two bolts to be tightened
upon re-installation of the carburetor to the intake manifold without the
worry of warping the carburetor again.” Barkers’ five pack Bushing Kit
supplies enough bushings and screws to rebuild 5 Rochester Carburetors.
When these bushings are used in conjunction with the Barker Un-warping
Tool, vacuum leaks and emissions will dramatically decrease, while overall
performance is noticeably improved. Tests prove that the Rochester
Quadrajet Carburetor works better than new when the unwarping tool and
bushing kits are used during the carburetor rebuilding process.
