*imagines nick holding out a hand to help people onto the rollaclub cruise ship*

 

haha.

so this isnt a cruise ship? its a rollaclub pirate ship!

 

are we all cursed? :P

Depends what engine you are putting it on.

 

Welcome aboard

 

 

 

 

Its a KE70 I'm going to put it on.

motor is still stock i think it should go alright i hope?!!! :P

Yeah should go OK on a 4K

 

I had a 32/36 on a worked 4K and it was just a tad too big, you get the best of both worlds with a 28/36

 

You'll get nice low end response along with the high end flow that these carbs give :P

 

Make sure you try and find a carby kit and give it a quick rebuild, you'll be going like a shower of shit in no time.

 

Highly suggest a 25/65 cam with that carb and a 1.75" ~ 2.0" exhaust system.

 

Best of luck

 

Hey thanks for the info i will be getting that cam you said i think it would be worth it! + going to take most of the day to put it on like altering the accel cable to fit etc had hell of a time to find a air filter assembly for it but finally found 1! :)

Hope you didn't use one of those foam filters?

 

They dry out and get sucked into the engine as they fall apart.

 

Highly suggest using a redline type air filter

 

Umm sorta got a Ram-Flo filter i gues i could get a oiling kit to oil the foam the damn thing cost me $72 inc freight redline has stoped making the rectangular air filter assembly for DCD weber very hard to find 1! + i hate the look of the round filter!

Hi Guys,

 

My first post here as well! Great forum, excellent info - well done!

 

I just fitted a 28/36 DCD to my 4K KE20 and it is definately better than the aisan carb! Still does not go too well as I need to fit an exhaust and extractors yet, but definately more responsive.

 

Those redline filters you are talking about, do you mean rectangular paper low profile type? I have seen some new old stock complete including housing near me for around $50.

28/36 DCD webers are very good. i ran one on a warmed over 4k with a 25/65 cam, extractors and exhaust for 3 1/2 years in my ke15. went really well, gave 35mpg and upset dozens of v6 drivers.

 

my DCD had 25 mm primary and secondary venturis in it when i had it on the 4k. the venturis are replacable, making the DCD the most tunable 2 barrel asynchronous downdraft carb out there.

 

26mm primary and 27mm secondary venturis work well on a warm 5k.

 

the foam filters are fine so long as you look after them and change the filter element if it dries out. usually you will get 2 years of use before you need to replace the foam. make sure you wash it out with soapy water. do not use petrol or it will rot prematurely. i know from experience. DGV weber filters are easily adaptable to a DCD with minimal mods.
