I hate cleaning my garage. When its organized and stuff, I cant find ****. I guess I will stick to my old filing system. messy but I know where to find it.

 

^^^ I am the same way

I want an IDA for sure, not feeling the IDF, dont plan on going turbo on this car.

I was thinking of a Weber 48 Downdraft, Though I guess I would be open to a side draft, but I wasnt as pleased with my sidedraft Dell'orto, so I wanna stick with a downdraft.

Another fourm memeber has offered me thier tuned Weber 45 DOCE, but I dont know.

 

^^ how much?

 

oo i have an idf laying around. havent really planned on installing it for awhile cuz its soo cold right now. i dont like working in the cold.... anyways why is the idf better for boost and why is ida better for na's?

 

i Have a ida on my half bridge and i love it. Its goimg to be transfered to my p-port in the spring.









One down fall is that i have to hold the pedal down till she is warm, but i can live with that.

 

Have you seen a race car with an IDF?

 

In my FB


In my RX-3

 

the idf if not an ideal carb for an all motor setup, but it works well for turbo applications.. the ida is more of a race bred carb and will outperform any of the other webers , but driveability suffers a little.. wacky is the king of ida carbs in my opinion

 

Wacky, such beautiful expensive set ups, so why with the cheap oil filters?
I see alot of you guys running those cheap Frams. Is there something i don't know?

 

Oh, and I like my Weber of the side draught kind :

 

coz Im a cheap *** and I get a package deals for Fram filters. Actually, I have been using Fram for over 20 years and I havent seen any problems. I religiously change the oil at 3K miles. Castrol or Valvoline whichever is on sale at my bro's partshouse but hell no to Pennzoil.

 

Awww yes who can forget that wonderful use of the weber!

PS: I got the parts in and they look great, thanks again kim!

I see that some run 48's on thier Half bridged, would a 48 be over kill for my Streetport?

Aslo Robert (680RWHP12A) What do you mean that the driveablity suffers?

 

Well Latin270 has offered to trade his weber 45 sidedraft tuned for a streetport for my sterling.

I dont know, I was hoping for a Weber 48 IDA.

 

Come over so you can try out any of the darn RB holley carbs and IDAs. Im in LA so its not too far from you.

 

Hell it would take me all day to make it across Texas! lol

Sad thing is, If I had the money I would! lol

I wish there was someone like you with a carb junkpile by me.

Edit: How about you send me one on loan!? Ill give you something for collateral.

 

Cant believe you didnt jump on that deal bro! A beautiful Weber 45dcoe w/ intake for a Sterling. I actually got a 48ida and am going with that set up FINALLY!

 

I see you got the camben supercharger Kim. How do you like it?

 

Latin if it would have been a downdraft I would have been on that like a rotorhead to a free part giveaway!

 

lol....thats cool brother! Wacky convinced me to go with the IDA and the Hieni's! lol

 

What are all the cars that will work with the different intakes. I remeber seeing a tread about an off brand carb that could be used with the sidedraft intake.

 

Wacky and those hieni's I swear, I needed a part form him and he asked for a 12 pack of heini in return! lol

I wanna go 48 IDA, maybe if wacky loans me one like I asked on the last page I will end up making the swap. lol

 

lol. Wish you live in the area so you can try out different carbs.

 

So Do I, So Do I!!!

Thats the thing about carbs, you got to try them to see what you like! You can read up on them all you want, and talk to as many people about them as you want, but you cant be sure until its on your car, with your engine, on your port job, with your tuning. Get my drift.

 

So which of my RX would you like to buy. j/k

 

Your RX-3! No question!
