First time carb buyer
I have just finished swapping my 12a for a 13b. 12a was messed up. i ordered a racing beat upper manifold part #18101 and now I'm looking at Weber options. I have spent to much time today looking at all the different carbs and Weber sold me. But which one. i was thinking the 40 dcoe would best fit my application and budget.
I'm not going to be racing but i will be doing alot of highway 55-65 mph. I also will be doing a lot of city driving. I'm also wanting the best millage i can get. So I'm open to opinions thanks.

efi!
if you insist on a carby, 40 is way small, but it'll actually work better at low enigne speeds. top end will be low, cause the carb is just too small
i think the stock fc runs 3x45mm throttle body...

The dellorto fell through, guy was a thief. I am shopping again. there sure are alot of idf carbs out there, weird how there so much less the side drafts "cost wise" so it looks like there is no othere option than a 48 weber side draft.
