AzusaBrat

I paid $1700 for my 82 Brat about 2010 and drove it home engine screaming @ 68 mph on the fwy! Sweet, fun and very clean with only minor rust, runs like a Timex watch and fires up on the 1st click EVERY time. I discovered that the front end had been replaced and under the fenders was a bent & crumpled drivers side brace from the strut tower to the radiator support. No biggie, but then the title had some expensive issues too. All in all, I'm very happy with it & just started to dig it out of the garage again to start a mild perf upgrade on the engine, fab up a cage and bumpers. Cheers!

Yeah, I’m with you on all the smog headaches. This will be strictly off-road. She barely passed smog once upon a time and only with help from a little “tuning”. Basic plan of attack right now is: 1. Engine (Carb, Cam, Exhaust) 2. Cage 3. Suspension (Wide, Nitro Shocks, VW 5 lug) 4. Body/Paint I’m sure it’ll be that easy too!!! Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday

Thanks! I have not purchased anything yet. I have an 82 Brat and want to start working on it. It runs really good, fires up on the 1st ignition twist EVERY time. But that's boring!! So, I'd like to add a cam, carb & exhaust before I tackle the suspension. Get rid of the smog stuff in the process too. Just dreaming/planning before I do purchase. Im aware of the DVG/Weber kits, but I also see a DVG to DCOE adapter that looks like a whole lotta fun. A single 40 or 44 side draft in place of the stock would be pretty cool!

Hello All, Would like to adapt a Weber 44 Idf carb to my stock EA81. Does anyone have any suggestions/recommendations for or against this type of mod?
