Vortech Universal PowerHat Carburetor Hat Assembly - Black 8M106-014
Black Universal PowerHat for Blow-Through Carbureted Supercharger Systems
The Vortech Superchargers Universal PowerHat Carburetor Hat Assembly (PN 8M106-014) is a cast aluminum carburetor hat designed specifically for blow-through supercharged applications using Holley 4150-style four-barrel carburetors with mechanical secondaries. Engineered to deliver even airflow under boost, the PowerHat helps improve drivability, fuel control, and consistency compared to traditional carb hat designs.
This PowerHat is compatible with popular carburetors from Holley, Quick Fuel, and Demon. Re-jetting or minor carburetor modifications may be required depending on boost level and application. Vortech recommends the Quick Fuel Q-750-BAN carburetor for most forced-induction street and performance builds.
Low-Profile PowerHat Design
Featuring a low-profile 3.2-inch overall height, the Vortech PowerHat is ideal for tight engine bays and hood clearance constraints. Its compact design allows for near-360-degree rotation, providing excellent flexibility when routing charge pipes in custom supercharger installations.
Integrated Diffusion Technology
Unlike basic carburetor hats, the Vortech PowerHat incorporates integrated diffusion technology that manages incoming pressurized air before it enters the carburetor. This diffuser element helps reduce uneven air distribution, minimizing common jetting and tuning issues associated with traditional blow-through carb hats.
