Dave240Z Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 The differences are rather minor really, mostly a matter of personal preference. The differences mainly involve how they deliver fuel in that they use different fuel "circuits". So the amount of jets are different, the jet types are also different which makes swapping jets between Weber and Mikuni impractical. I don't have my historical reference with me, but I also believe that Mikuni's were loosely based on the Weber design. Some would argue that the Weber fuel circuit is a bit more elaborate and as such can deliver fuel a bit more precisely. Mikuni fans would likely counter that Mikuni's are more simple to work on and require fewer adjustments. Either way, they both work great on a Z car, so you can't really go wrong. The only real negative about Mikuni's at this point that I can think of is new part availability. Weber parts are still readily available. There is no such thing as an intake built just for Webers or Mikuni, they use the same mounting arrangment. So, you can bolt both Mikuni's and Weber's on a Cannon or a TWM manifold.
