I have removed the Weber 40IDC 3A carbs for a rebuild.
They currently have 32mm venturies. Will larger venturies give more top end power? The engine is 2.7 from a '77 911. Internals (P/Cs, compression ratio, Cams) are unknown. Bursch Headers with megaphones (with removable baffles). The car is 90% track. Weighs less than 2100lbs. Thanks Eddie |

The power curve is fairly linear. The rev limiter is at about 6700rpm (distributor rotor limiter?).
3500-4000 seems to be the fat part of the power curve. The power seems to flatten out over 4500-5000. I have access to a set of 36mm chokes. What jetting should I use with the 36s? I know that compression ratio and cams are the major factors in determining jetting, but how much does do headers and mufflers affect jetting. I have not had a chance to run the car with the baffles out of the megaphones. October 30 is the IRDC lapping day at Bremerton Raceway. If the rain holds off, I'll run the car with open megaphones. Dan, Are the 40/38s available for rent? Thanks Eddie |
