kickn5k Posted October 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 I got mine tuned and balanced today and far out what an incredible difference that made. The guy who tuned them recommended a regulator with 2psi fuel pressure otherwise it damages the needles and seats. I highly recommend getting your su's tuned as it makes one hell of a difference. Actually i have a balancer at the moment as that is already done i think i sould be able to tune it myself with some help from mate to desifer what is exactlly going on so i should be able to tune her myself all i need is his dyno and sniffer. I purchased all my ram tubes and filters from, and i know I'm going to get laughed at but autobarn frankston. tubes were $60 a pair and the filters were $40 i think. but the do look awesome. And a tip to people do not use oil on the filters as it made my that rich it almost didnt run carbie screwed full lean and it still smoked like a claped out diesel. I think though i may use the paper filters like corolla kids as i have some clearance issues. once again thanks for all you info guys. stu old school cool for an old school car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikon_idol Posted October 11, 2006 Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 Sorry mate but i would NEVER EVER use a ramflo air filter again after i saw one ignite.....those things should be bloody illegal. I'm thinking about the ramtubes and socks idea.....i've been trying to get some cheapies...lol.....failing that i could probably get some more unifilters (looks at empty wallet). Hi. Geez, never had one burst into flames! A cheap solution maybe the paper element "pancake" style filters used on some of the old Triumph Spitfires that had HS4 carbs. The used to cost about $28 each.

Sloth Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 Ramflo's catch fire :):S i'll have to watch out for that. I've been having some problems with my SU's too, i'll have to check out that guy in Cheltenham Kanga, my girlfriend lives jsut round the block. We were going to put socks on mine at one point, but they wouldn't fit in because of the suspension pillar and the fact that my carbies are sitting upright, anyone else had this problem? If so, how'd you overcome it? I'll have to put a pic up of the striaghtened carbies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
