Questions re: Weber 44 IDF carbs:
1. Is anyone running these on a stock engine, and if so, how do they perform? National Carburetors kit for stock engines is 34 ICT's, lightly modified 40 IDF's, and only 44's on heavily modified engines. 2. What problems do you introduce using 44's? other than dumping too much fuel in the engine...... 3. Venturi's are 45mm, someone pointed out that one should use 40mm venturi's - is that with a stock engine? 4. Anyone run 44's and then convert back to EFI? How did that go? Labor cost? TIA, GN |

Here's another resource for you: https://members.rennlist.com/pbanders/djetparts.htm
I've read that page probably 100 times or more. I've got a son who says "Beat UVA" and a daughter that hopes to say the same in a few months. And another daughter who should be saying "I need a job. Hire me." |

WOW! What a gold mine! I can pre-test all the components before installing the system!
PRICELESS! I can also see issues ahead I need to address: return line on tank sealed off, and more. Car has new Electronic Ignition - need to open distributor to see what's inside - points? Or electronic? wonder if I can use EI with the FI.....????? Lots of questions..... GN PS: We are a VA Tech family, and it was really hard on me when my daughter decided to go to UVA, but she graduated Phi Beta Kappa with distinction, so we are grateful. Have graduates of VA Tech, UVA, Liberty, Univ. of Richmond and ODU - all who put themselves through. Daddy told all 8 kids, "No way Dad will ever make enough to put 8 kids thru college, and wouldn't be fair to pay for some and not others - so here's the deal: you earn your own way through college and Daddy will buy you a nice car!" It worked. I bought 5 cars, they have 8 degrees among them. 3 chose no college but are each very successful in their careers. Family pic on Thread "What the Heck do you look like?"
