Morning,
Semi-newbie here. Have a 1.7 daily driver with a big bore kit and CB street cam. Have the Weber progressive but want to switch to 40 or 44. I get the feeling that, where it's not a big engine, 40s or 44s? Again, daily driver. Don't need to set the world on fire. Thanks! |

Just done a 1.8 carb cam motor on Dellorto DRLA's 36mm easy to tune with 28mm vents,nice idle with easy starting,I really like these carbs.
 40mm will run fine with 28mm vents on a mild small bore motor,and provide a good driving street car. I'am constantly amazed @ the amount of folks trying to run oversize carbs on these engines ,they just run like (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) and are SO hard to tune due to poor vacuum signal ,leave the big carbs to the high rpm big horsepower big bore motors IMO. |
