    why? you wanna use more fuel than necessary? the best way to get power out of old engines is to tune them.

    This is oldjohnno's 12 port head on a red block with triple SU's and a custom manifold.

    That is all you'll need.


    I have the carbs I need, now to get the specs for the manifold...

    yeah thats all good, but OP is talking about putting a different carby on a stock engine and expecting some kind of performance increase... its just not going to happen. best mods are:
    spark plugs
    leads
    filters
    dizzy cap
    rotor button
    carby rebild kit
    carby cleaner

    A mechanic I did some work for when I was a kid used to race an LH Torana on dirt track speedway, completely stock apart from extractors and a Webber off an XE. Blew the doors off everything.

    I had a 250 cfm webber on my blue 202 with headers and a mild cam. yeah it was a bit tired and yes it liked to drink (still got 500km to the tank if baby footed around) but it used to fly for what it was.
