Re: Individual Carburated Throttle Bodies on Honda engine?
 

pretty damn awesome if u ask me... which is why i wanna try this on straight LS or LS-V. the guy locally with his LS-V carburated + nitrous has a lil over 500whp if i remember. but i dunno if it was 500 with the nitrous or 500whp + the nitrous. ill ask him the next time i see him.

Weber carbs=old school import days. Your best bet is if you serious buy a weber sidedraft book there is a couple good ones check amazon. From last I know of weber no longer is in production of sidedfart carbs so if you find a set your lucky. Manifold building is next. I think pierce manifolds still has complete kits but dont quote me and the whole kit is around 1100 everything you need to convert. 45 mm is the satndard size for most street honda motors plannin on making good power.

First Dellorto, then Mikuni, and now Weber are discontinuing carbs?

Now, I love EFI lots + lots, but it's like the passing of an age.

Bisi runs webers because of the operational limits of the engine bay. There wasn't enough room to place the injectors far enough back to create proper fuel atomization. Carbs do a fine job of making power balls out, but ofcourse suck at making power throughout the whole rpm range. They are suited perfectly for drag racing.

And ofcourse if you don't run some sort of stand alone to control the timing then you can always get the D-series JDM 1 wire dizzy... ofcourse you loose all timing tuning abilities.

Pierce mani's told me awhile ago they stopped but another compnay was going to start production back up but I havent kept up with the news. I still have my set of 45's I may install in the all motor drag car kinda just to do it and be different.

thanks mr ingrish major, you know what I ment ::)

Re: Individual Carburated Throttle Bodies on Honda engine?
 

You need to run that one past me again, demonstrating how pouring gasoline at low pressure past an orifice versus spraying gasoline at high pressure acriss and orifice is going to have the low pressure setup have better atomization.

Bisi has some wierd ideas, some of which aren;t so wierd just so intensely technical they get wierded out when watered down for laymen. He's twice the engineer I could ever hope to be.

That wasn't Engrish. That was being intensely technical, with no regard for the laymen. :P

Re: Individual Carburated Throttle Bodies on Honda engine?
 

Its what he said in an interview. That there simply wasn't enough room to put the fuel injectors far enough back to get the fuel to properly atomize....
