Pink Carburetors

As the son of famous engine builder Ed Pink, Bill Pink grew up spending most of his time at the local drag strips and race tracks in Southern California where he learned to build each carburetor by hand, honing in on the smallest of details that make all the difference in performance.

Recognizing no two drivers are alike, Bill personally works with them to find the hundredths and thousandths of a second throttle response that can make the difference between running with the pack and leading the pack. When building a carburetor Bill says “it’s not always about just running wide open, but about recovery time”, which is why those looking to be competitive look to Bill Pink.
