dellorto 40
my neigbor (who's a carb specialist) came about a dellorto 40 series side draft. he'll sell it to me really cheap. i plan on doing a blow thru setup, will this work on my 12a? he says i can use any weber side draft intake manifold. what do you think? and when i say cheap, i mean like 50 bucks. REBUILT. but i'm soo press for cash so i am only going to get it if this will seriously work well for my application. thanks guys

yeah I thought dellorto carbs would go on webber manifolds, so it sounds like a pretty good deal to me.
I'd make sure that particaular carb is a good canidate for a blow through setup first. |
no it won't work at all!!!! so i'll just send you some money and you can ship it to me, Cool?

40's are dime a dozen, if you don't already have a manifold for it, i'd consider a draw through setup, very easy to fabricate, my vw buddy runs a 40 del draw on a 1776, works very well, the manifold is steel and looks crude but works awesome, all he did was cut out a flange and weld it horizontially on a pipe and weld a cap on the end, not the most efficeinct way, but it works,
if you do it all from aluminumyou could cut/make a flange from a stock manifold or maybe just cut the carb mount flange off the manifold make a flange from some aluminum stock and weld it to the stock manifold. or you could spend lots of money for bolt on stuff. joe |
I would defiantly NOT do a draw-thru setup. Blow-thru is just a much better setup.
|
wats the difference between blow thru and draw thru?
|
dont worry, i know exactly how i'm doing it, just not exactly sure which carb. it will be blow thru fo RIZZLE! :D

so back to the basic question, you guys think this will be ok for 6pounds of boost?
