November 8, 200718 yr ok, its nothing special 87 ea82 carb, 5mt w/ d/r 4wd. running 11.5deg btc. all charts measure atw power car was extremely consistent, final suggestions were to rebuild and re-jet the carb...damn hitachi more power could have been achieved but the car was running lean 16.1-1 on primary 14.1-1 wot
November 8, 200718 yr That is an emissions carb (lean). Sounds to me like it is running just about perfect. 14:1 is just about perfect stoichiometric ratio, even if it is not the best for maximum power. And 72 HP at the wheels is pretty darn good!
November 8, 200718 yr Author well, the carb is worn and giving me a vacuum leak. so i'm considering getting the metering plate for the secondary milled out a bit. overall the package is working for me.
November 8, 200718 yr Author oh and zap, don't worry i will actually have some decent tires for next year
