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 |

dude, you are all over the map. get the car running with the 44's. thats whats on hand. the fi works better, period. as i said before, the 44's will work decently, with compromises. the d-jet is better. since you are trying to flip for paymax, running with carbs is better than not running with anything. stock d-jet, running car is worth more than non running carbs or running with carbs that just need "a cleaning. get the car running first. then, you can ponder the theoreticals. like, are yellow cars really faster. btw, i have a very fast, running and driving yellow 914. have i mentioned that?
