SOOBOUTLAW Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 I remember a few years ago I came across a site called soobspeed. I think they had kits like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 You mean the Dual Hitachi setup from the japanese import engines? They are out there. Just keep looking. Dual Weber's? Never heard of it. You would need a custom intake manifold for it. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry DeMoss Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Ummm dual webers is what I am in the process of working on right now.I am trying to figure out what is the best design for the adapter plates.Since the carbs are much bigger than on the dual hitachi's they need to be off-set about 1.5" or so.If you find adaters and anything that leads me to a general ballpark idea of what jets to run let me know please.That would save me a whole lot of time.

SOOBOUTLAW Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 A 40mm DCOE downdraft would be cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingwill Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Now I have seen the dual carb intake one time on a engine that was for sale unfortunate for me the guy did not just want to sell the intake unless I bought the whole engine, which at the time I could not afford. I believe you may find one on the gyro copter sites, (sorry do not remember which site it was) but they use subaru engines to fly those things. and I believe I have seen a dual carb intake there. Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psyko Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 My dad's got a dual Hitachi carb. :cool: /end shameless bragging ...sitting around collecting dust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 This perhaps? Um - where did that come from? And what model of carb is that? Would you consider selling it? GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pooparu Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 This is the only one I've ever seen in person, but I know that the set-up came from Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 That's a dual Hitachi. I met the guy that built that a few years ago before he died. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyko Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 So that's the fabled air box, eh? We have the engine, but not the box. I'd imagine finding one is like looking for hen's teeth. :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostamojen Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 This is the only one I've ever seen in person, but I know that the set-up came from Australia. Is that the only photo you have? Its hard to see whats under that huge airbox... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboobaroo Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Is that the only photo you have? Its hard to see whats under that huge airbox... This is basically whats under there... But this is for an EA71, not the EA81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pooparu Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 That's a dual Hitachi. I met the guy that built that a few years ago before he died. GD Ya, I got a chance to talk to him a few times at a couple of the WCSS's. Super nice guy and always willing to talk Subaru with anyone (never talked down to people that didn't know as much as him about cars). I thought the tribute to him at the last WCSS was great. It sounded like he had a lot of friends. Anyways I know that there have been a few people on the board here over the years that have tried to concoct an intake manifold to do a duel weber setup, but I've never heard of anyone successfully finishing one. Here's one I remember seeing: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=64842&highlight=duel+carb It seems like it's a bigger pain in the rear to build a dual weber setup than it's worth. I wouldn't think that the power gain would be that great. It seems like the greatest reward would just be that fact that you were able to do it. At least that's what I think. If it's power you're looking for just EJ it and call it good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phizinza Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 here's one without the airbox on. This is my old setup (still have that engine.) Its the dual carb engine as well, so its got the different valve setup.. I'm hopefully getting around to building my own dual weber setup. Sit the webers on each head kinda way. But I'm not sure if I'll do that or just put it on LPG and boost it to hell. Engines suppose to get 101hp new. And its not in the carbs, all the yreally seem to do is let her rev out to over 8K.

At this point we are talking about whatever we like cause this post is two years old and the original poster is long gone (he was worthless anyway).

Kostamojen Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 At this point we are talking about whatever Well in that case, i'm more curious about that Weber intake manifold, since it was designed as an upgrade for the dual-carb setup on the sport models, and it would be easier to use since it wouldn't require the complicated throttle system... But finding one on the other hand, probably WAY more difficult than finding a regular dual-carb setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi subbie Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 if you were going to run twin webbers what ones would you best to use? wouldnt want to over fuel the engine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyko Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Here's an interesting setup I ran across a while ago. It's an EJ in a VW, but the same idea could be applied to an EA. Dual Weber on EJ18. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
