special carb prep for rotary

87 13b 6 port, I have decided to remove the EFI.
I found an upper manifold from Racing Beat for side draft Dellerto that uses the EFI lower manifold (so I can keep full operation of ports 5 and 6).

I have heard about special prep that has to be thrown in a Holley to work well w/rotary engines, question is, does a side draft Weber or Dellorto also have to undergo "special tuning" to be properly compatable w/a rotary.

I would love to use something I already have access to.

Thanks.

If you have a Weber, call Pierce Manifold in Gilroy, CA.

I had a similar set up with a 13b 6 port in a 82 gsl and I bought my DCOE 45 from them and they set it up with the right jets.

So I can really start with any side draft weber of appropriate size and achieve this "rotary compatability" via jets, venturis and emulsion tubes?

Theres no magical mystical modification ritual as some say a holley needs if not alredy calibrated for rotary?

That would be nice, Im already fairly adept at tuning Dellortos and Webers, albeit inept at tuning a rotary.

Thanks for responding, that link looks like a good resource.
