BTW Typrus. Thanks for listing the Tercels you've crashed.. There's no glory in boasting about our mistakes, but there's no honor in trying to cover them up. I've destroyed 10 cars in my time. But I've also save countless accidents from happening. Some while I was just minding my own buisness even! ...

I better go take a look at mine.. My idea was to chop the intake manifold about a half inch from the head, use it as a flange, and have some thick sections of aluminum tubing welded around each port to create "stubs" to clamp silicone hose sections to. Any welder could do that. It wouldn't...

No coolant. Cool. There's one nice thing about using street bike carbs for a custom project. The carbs need to use a soft mount. Which means whatever "stub outs" that you make for the manifold, you want to mount the carb by clamping silicone tubing to those stubs. No other mount. Not anyth...

Don't forget, I'm still a Newbie.. I don't know what manifolds are available for the 3AC, but I can give you enough of what I know to get you into plenty of trouble :P .. Any engine can, and in my opinion should, run one throttle plate per cylinder. Now I forget exactly why you need such large throt...

One more thing.. Forgot to mention. In my experience once a 32/36 (and most any other carb that isn't oversized for the engine) is set up correctly for a given altitude, you should really only need to change the main and air correction jets when varying elevation. The loss of signal at altitude to t...

Alrighty then.. This is the enrichment hole that begins fuel pick-up from another hole in the float bowl, then leads up to a 90 degree brass fitting in the air horn? Rather than the vacume supply to the "power jet" plunger in the carb, I'm assuming. One thing I think seperates Weber racing...

I just joined up today! I just got a 1984 Tercel 4WD for free! I was told it needed a an igniter because it showed no spark.. Turns out the timing belt was snapped clean! Doesn't make for a very good spark when you're not turning the cam :oops: So I'd like to put one of my 4 32/26 Webers on it. I ha...
