Sure seems like another reason to not go with Weber intake system. I know they are beautiful, but why take the risk? Seems like so many have issues with these set ups, why go there? Oh, you think you have your problem solved now? We will see.....

Let me ask you a question:

"why date an Italian supermodel ? Seems like a lot trouble, high maintenance and all that, very risky, I hear they have issues…"

Well, guess what, Italian supermodels have no trouble getting dates. Must be "worth" it somehow.

Same with Weber carbs on an American V-8

I am contact with Jim now to get them sorted out correctly, to include linkage and jetting.

Gun Doc

that would be one engine builder to avoid. It's criminally negligent to send out an engine with binding in the linkage or carbs. This story could have easily had a very tragic ending.

NOTE: just found the related thread on PE. Hope it all gets sorted out OK
