Carb setup??

I want to replace my carb on my 1983 gsl.. I was wondering if a delltoro carb would be a good setup with RB full exhuast and where would i be able to get the whole setup??

Thanks

actually, the dellorto is more or less an updated version of the weber. basically it offers more adjustablility. however, both are fine carbs.

all dellortos will have to be second hand. which means you'll be able to find a good deal on one if you search hard enough. www.cbperformance.com still stocks a decent amount of parts for it, and there's a british site (do a search on dellorto) that stocks every part made (or so they say). i don't remember the url, but their email is sales@dellorto.co.uk make SURE you get the dellortos specifically for rotaries. not all will work.
