KE ping it real Posted February 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) So i am getting an unexpected upgrade now, Was trolling ebay and found a fully recoed single 40mm DCOM sidedraught weber on manifold from RE-Carb in QLD can't wait to get hold of it and fitted, will be much more responsive and should get a bit more power over the downdraught 32/36 i have on there now, plus i can ditch the stock mani now as well :y: Glad i found a single, as much as i like twins (used to have dellortos on my old coupe) the single will be much easier to keep tuned and for the size of my engine ( or any K engine) A single weber sidey will provide ample fuelling no matter how crazy i get with the internal mods a little further down the track Edited February 4, 2012 by KE ping it real Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOOMAN Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 It's looking great mate. Love those rims, really set it off. Also the grill looks sweet, only thing I could suggest is spraying the area behind it black so that you don't see it as much through the grill.

KE ping it real Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Ok Progress still happening Carby is all mounted, and almost running smoothly will rectify that on Saturday arvo Also after getting 4 flat tyres from having undersized 165's on 7 inch rims(warning to people who want to stretch tyres) I now have some 205/60R13's all round Painted the lettering on the tyres for that muscle car look, will post more photos on Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jono.C Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Arguable. Less grip obviously but there wouldn't be "gutters" on racetracks where vigourous driving should be done... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
