If you want to buy their ''kit'' that is just a carb and intake and some POS foam filters, go ahead. I tried to save some money buy getting their setup and I regret it now. Just make an OMP block off plate while you are waiting for your carb to come.
Are you saying they didn't mill-in oil fitting for the hoses from the OMP? Mikuni and delerto kits came with that. What about a metering rod for the OMP? Are you telling us that $475 50mm DCO carb doesn't even come with that? Is this a long time ago? OR have they actually modified these webers to be true bolt ons?

i am either going tog et a 48 or 50 dco for my streetport 13b
theres nothing i can do to change it to make it run good,
i.e. venturies etc...

i'm making a deal to get it,so i kinda have no choice in the size.

you say your gonna run a 48 on a 13b,mines only a 12a,
still not adequate?

for stock port, a 48 will do you fine.. on a street port, i am not sure.. it should not starve your engine, but you might not be getting all the power that you otherwise could...

im only getting a 45 weber dcoe.

i was just reffering to you saying you were getting a 48 on a 13b streetport,

so i figured a 45 dcoe on a 12a streetport would be fine,just not ideal.
