Default I didn't have great luck with mine like everyone else.

Mine leaked all over my newly painted Intake. The float bowls weren't mine, I asked for all of my own parts to be used, and I was assured they would be. For almost $500 , I was hoping for at least very good.

I find that story a little hard to digest. Most all reputable builders test their carbs, Phil being one of them.

I think there is more to this story. Seems very unlikely that this leaked as stated. First post is very odd especially since I just spoke to Phil and he would be more than happy to resolve this issue. He has never been contacted about this issue and has asked you contact him directly. BTW float leakage is primarily caused by fuel pumps putting out 8+ lbs of pressure so it could be on your side.
