Default Discharge Nozzle

Can anybody explain to me what the difference is between the tube type discharge nozzle, a.k.a. "squirters," and the non tubes? Anybody in the bay area know a carb shop that can change boosters on a 4150 as well? Thank you.

This link shows all the different discharge nozzles Holley makes. They are held on with one screw so you dont need a shop to do it.

Here are some comment on tube versus straight, unless you have an unusual situation stick with whatever came on the carb. originally

Thank you very much for the info. I read through a couple of those articles. I'm going to be using the tube type squirters for my carb, and wanted to know if there was truly any difference between these two types.
