I want to but a downdraft carb my 86 fc n/a but i can't seem to figure out exactly which parts i need...I know the fuel pump, fuel regulator, and 48 weber carb, and other obvious stuff but as far as the manifold and mounting it i can't seem to find any clear cut answers on what a full turn key kit should have. And because the downdrafts seem to be rare its even worse...any ideas?

 

the easiest way is to get

racing beat intake
holley carb
1st gen electric dizzy
and a fuel psi regualtor for going from efi to carb

if u want a entire turn key carb setup which runs about 1k then racing beat also has that

u dont need a fuel pump just a regulator

but going carb isisnt cheap and it starts to get very pricey and it just as cheap to get a megasquirt standalone and keep your efi.

but if u want to be different which i can appreciate then just check out racing beat.com they ahve everything u will need

 

Wow, with gas prices over $4 / gallon, who the **** wants worse gas mileage on an FC???

Maybe it's not his daily driver?? Well, I've got 40mm Weber sidedrafts I'm trying to sell, but I guess that doesn't help much...

 

why not the sidedraft 48?! msg me i have a weber carb'd fc

 

Unless you are trying to build the car for one specific class of racing, I'd suggest you keep your EFI.

Or if you really must go carb, then at least get onS with a choke.
