Yes, and my old Steel braided Oil lines..... They're in excellent condition. I just upgraded mines to a different style. and I added a Weber 45DCOE intake system to my car. Works Great, I still have some fine tuning but so far it has a great amount of power versus stock. Love it... Car really responds to it..

There's nothing wrong with the oil lines nor the air filter charger. Who ever gets the air cleaner will also get a bottle of oil and cleaner supplies with it....

A 45 DCOE,, huh ?? thats pretty good,,i've got a header
to,,right ?? you know,, what made you decide to go
with the webber,,,??? let me guess,,,it's from mariah ??
you know i didn't know mariah made your old filter setup.
at least on there site there's no such setup i've seen..
On your webber are you going to use a k/n foam filter,
or run the 'V' stacks with the screens over the tops ??
FYI if you don't alreaddy know this,,for that carb,to synk
both sides the same you'll need a tool,,a vacume guage
it's called a uni-synk, it comes in handy for the side drafts also i guess you've found a glass roof alreaddy
too,,i emailed you, that i've got a pristine mazda glass
moonroof,if your interested..

NO ist not from Mariah Motorsports, is from MazdaRacing.com, the main reason was that the hood I have makes the internal space low. so I needed to find an aftermarket carb that would allow for this low clearance, guess what, the weber sidedraft was the perfect solution, since delortos are so hard to find and also the weber has a manual choke or richener whatever you callit... I checked around and it was a matter of availability...

I am using the Unifilters made out of foam, one for each horn...

Mariah has this setup for use with the Fiberglass hood as the filter kit lowers the air filter so it fits under the hood...

To fine tune the carb I am using a pyrometer to check for exaust temp...

as per information gathered an exaust temp of 1650 - 1700 is ideal, which means the carbs are tuned correctly...

Yes, I did find a glass roof, as a matter of fact, I have two one glass and one plexiglass almost brand new that I will be selling here soon... If you know of anyone who wants one I do have it... almost brand new... but is plexiglass...

What's a pristine, an aftermarket glass or a factory one...

Try http://www.mariahmotorsports.com they're the only ones I know that have it, or maybe they can direct you to the right place if all you want is the chrome top...

When i say 'pristine' i am refering to its condition,
no scratches,no gunk, all hardwhere present, and it's
a factory mazda tinted glass moonroof..how do you
like how the glass roof opens up everything,,,i love mine.
i'm playing with the idea of creating some sort of 'soft'
shade, attached with velcro,,or suction cups,,because
sometimes the sun pouring in is over bearing and to
hot,,and keep the sun from wreacking the insides when
the car is parked outside in the daytime

I know what you mean..don't you hate that ? I do,,it bugged me bad,,i took some teflon tape, and on the
two pins that hold the roof on,(on the crank up/down)
i wraped a couple of wraps on those pins and worked
like a charrm.. my metal roof never made noise,but the glass roof rattled. you might try teflon tape.

Exclamation

Yes, and after one month and a few emails I finally got someone to call me. It took them six weeks to get my carburetor shipped. Will I do busisness with them again? I will really have to think about it, and if I'm not in a hurry maybe, but be aware that you will not get your items any time soon.... Regarding the Weber carburetor, I have no complaints, however, when I got the one piece wrap around intake, it did not come with any adapters for the oil metering pump nor the brake booster.. The holes are there but no adaptors...

So othere than that... it was okay, as I was not on a rush anyway... but if you need parts quick, not the best store....

Thy vinyl liner of the metal roof comes off very, very easily. Just remove the roof, turn it upside down,grab an edge of the liner, and lift.
