lowlancer Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Yuh just read carb articale "Do not dispatch of choke" M3an. Reckon 32mm may be too small though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteretep Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 damn i tried finding where it said what it was, some to do with pilot something? I cant remember, just try it both ways and see what happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 it's the choke fuel/air port. acts like a venturi and draws fuel out of float bowl. pretty rancid but it beats having to hold your hand over like 2 of the carbs whilst cranking to choke it enough to start when cold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowlancer Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 FUCKING SWEET AS And 32mm too small wtf. God I'm newb some/all the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 32 will give midrange hard I reckon. probably be jsut like stock or some shit. more suited to a 1300 or some shit. coz 45mm dcoe = 2 throats at 45mm IMO I would be running around that size. want top end methinks.

lowlancer Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Then how does 32/36 downdraught, twin choke, do it? Fucking shit, I dont understand it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 yeah. will work sweet, just wont be as good as 45 sidies or some shit. didnt realise you'd bailed on the twindcam idea now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, was gonna be a cunt. Have to use a megasquirt or such like. Fuck that stz, end up in same position as last time. I want something easy enough but not as gay as chucking a weber on it. Nah door is still fucked. Probably last thing I plan to fix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikuni Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 If you can run any kind of distributor off an old carburetted engine if it will fit on the twincam? I think all of the twincams run a CAS setup though, which makes it abit tricky? It won't be good though, but if you just want a simple kind of setup it is possible. People do this type of rugged setup to run carbs on XE's. Its not pretty but it works and is quite cheap and easy. http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/6953/picture096ye9.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v405/ ... adett4.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spencer Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Id say he wouldnt be able to get jets just have to drill them out stz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr dori Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 is it just me, i cant see anything that mildly resembles 'BOSO' on this sigma wagon? Ive never seen one in japan? are these popular cars to BOSO? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowlancer Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 It's taking the piss boe, thus the quotage Isn't boso at all, as if that's even a term that can be attributed to anything. Massive point of contention but I think we all settled on calling shit boso so people know what we're on about Also, if I go R1 carbs which I no doubt will have to, weber jets fit, or for a normal 2 litre you can drill that shit out to 1.8mm Thinkin I'll just rip these cunts to bits, learn something, clean them up and sell em on for profit/not lose money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 they take weber jets? didn't think they di gsxr750 ones form late 90s do though afaik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowlancer Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 According to this stz http://www.totalvauxhall.co.uk/resource ... h60697.pdf They do. Doesn't really matter either way. Probably get some from states and save like a hundy bucks. So cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
