I've thinking of doing a carby upgrade for my 3K engine after I realised how crap the Aisan carburettor really is. I've been thinking of doing a 32/36 DGV upgrade but in the end for a carby + adapter plate it would end up costing over 700 Australian buckaroos. I made my spreadsheets and added up all the taxes and the shipping costs and it seemed like a reasonable deal for brand new stuff.

But then I came across this guy that was selling these twin Weber DCOE 45's for about 600 and then I thought what if I added another 300 for a manifold and I would get a pair of twin DCOE 45mm's.

Has anyone done this upgrade. Since I live in Norway I'm worried about the clearances from the brakebooster in my engine bay. Does anyone know how tight it will be in a KE30 engine bay? And how would you link up these carbies? :)

Have a look at Brendens car, member name, mechanical sympathy, in rides and projects, he just put webers on a 30/55 bodied car.

Looks like there won't be much room with the brake booster:

 

 

 

You might have to go bike carbs, e.g. keihin fcr. And maybe remove the brake booster.

Here's an example in a KP30:

 

Or another option would be to upright the engine then you can keep Webers:

Then ITB:
