Non standard carb
Dave123:
Today I wewnt to college and found myself coming home with a bag that was alot heavier and a wallet no lighter. I was given a twin choke weber carb for free. :dance: Now, I have the ID No. 32 DRT/100 and it's off a 1.7 renault 5. I was told that it should give me more power over standard and I wanted to fit it just because it had the words twin, and Weber 8-[. So, what I was wandering is...
A: Will this really give me more power?
B: Is this in the right section
C: Does anybody have any info on this carb including what input/output connects to what and so on?
D: Anybody ever used a non standard carb on the standard engine?
E: If all tick the boxes, how hard is it and is it really worth it? (I'm pretty nifty in the bracket making and bodging department)
Thanks in advance.
Ps: I can get pics if needed :)

I've all ways ran twin choke webbers on my landys, the stock carbs are rubbish.
Does the carb look like this one?
stratie:
I run a K & N filter with the webber, seems to run better than the stock oil bath filter jobbie.
And if im out playing in muck i slip a Honda CR125 foam air filter over the K & N to keep the crud out.
It works a treat ;)
stratie:
The foam filter is from a 2003 Honda CR125 mx bike. It's like it was made for the job.
stratie:
This webber is fitted to my LWT.
You will need the spacer block jobbie to fit your webber to the manifold.
