Trying to decide if I should pay the extra $$$ and get a new or newer set of dells or is it resonable to get a used set and rebuild?
Do the rebuild kits usually make the carbs run OK or is there more to it? thanks, dr |

Weber has that cool sound, kinda throaty-like.
But for my .02 I use Dell's...just because. Thats what people say works best all around, not that anything is wrong with weber. By my 40 DRLA's are smoooth as silk. I need to do a bit of linkage fine tooning and I bet they're close to the F/I, seriously dood! No lag, no hesitation, no sputtering (usually). Better than I thought they could be. Webers are more popular and easier to get parts for, thus a good deal. But I can go out on a 15 degree morning and start my car and it'll idle at 700rpm with no problem. My webers never did that. -Bob O |
