datsun723 Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Nice Z. What do you think of each setup that's been on the car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swe_crazy Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 Nice Z. What do you think of each setup that's been on the car? Well, Stromberg carburetors are much like su carburetor, easy to sync. A su carb with turbo, very hard to sync, and carburetor is too small. Would probably work better with a weber. Dellorto 40 carburettors, very nice carburetor. but would recommend weber but only because it's easier to get parts etc.. I love the sound of Dellortorna Holley 390cfm .... have not tested it yet, but soon soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swe_crazy Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 Got a bit done today, weeee! Tore down most of the engine. Useless pictures, I know, I use a mobile phone Remove header and took the opportunity to wrap the header, the first and last time I do it. Much work and very itchy ... polished the intake Header mounted on the engine ... Intake fit was not perfect, grind a little here and there ... I'll make new washers for the header and intake manifold, different height of header and manifold ... Will try to make new washers tomorrow and reassemble the rest. Will also mount radiator hoses..
