pheonix165 Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robm Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 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!

pheonix165 Posted November 8, 2007 Author Share Posted November 8, 2007 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.
