308 carby tuning Melbourne

[pieman18]

Hey all

Pretty simple question

Does anyone know of a good 308 carby Tuning shop anywhere in Melbourne?
I've got a vc commodore that needs a bit of a freshen up

It seems like a bit of a tough ask these days

Thanks a lot

Hey all,

Sorry to bring up this thread again

It’s more of a follow up question from the original...

I’m looking to do a bit of work on the 308 in my vc, I’m hoping to modernize it a bit with vn heads, fuel injection and a modern carb
Is there anyone in Melbourne that can specialize in this sort of work? Can Steve at cmc auto do all the work I’m thinking of?

I’m trying to get this done very soon and any help you guys could give me is greatly appreciated

Thanks guys!

fuel injection and a modern carb

One or the other.

With fuel injection you will have a throttle body rather than a carb.

Look into ez efi - apparently awesome and very easy to tune. It’s throttle body injection and apparently with a little bit of knowledge it’s the way to go on an old carb engine without adding too much complexity.

Also consider that VN heads will mean a new cam and headers due to the different port order.
