Rejet the 44's or buy some 40's?, Yay, more carb questions. Options

[LowGT]

I have a stock 2.0 with dual weber 44's and a unilite. I had the 44's on hand, so if I rejet and change the venturis will it be like a 40idf? Or is there some significant difference between the 44's and 40's that make that not possible? Right now they are pig rich, as expected.

Right now it's:

36 venturis
50 idles
200 air correction
145 main
F11 emulsion

Proposed change #1:

Redo the 44's

32 venturis
45-50 idles
180-210 air correction
120-125 mains
F11 emulsion
(as you can tell, I don't know. From all the posts I searched this seemed like the area people were in with 40idfs)

Proposed change #2:

Sell the 44's, buy a set of 40's. Tune from there.


So which would you do? If you suggest keeping the 44's what would you recommend for jetting venturi?


Thanks! I need all the help I can get. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

what cam and what do the heads look like? also.. what kind of exhaust?

my hot cammed 2.0 with a header runs
44 IDF's
34 vents
135 mains
55 idles
175 airs

i have some 32's i can throw in.... but my motor currently is a power monger between 3300-6000+

i think you will be better off with 40's and a 32 vent....

wait for jake/etc to chime in
