Im wanting to replace the zeniths on my 72 3.0 cs with webber carbs. Which ones are the best replacement?
I was thinking of going for 38 Dgas webbers to give it just that little more.
And putting a car on a rolling road is the best way to set up carbs.
I'm currently in the market for a set of weber carbs for my 1970 2800CS. I've been looking at both Redline's 32/36's DGAV's or their 38 DGAS, but on Redline's website the say that "All three digit K kits (32/36's DGAV's) are for racing and offroad use only and must never be used on the highways in California".
Can any of you Californian owners shed some light? It sounds as if a pair of 38 DGAS Webers are the manufacturers solution? Also, is electric or manual choke better? Any body want to weigh in?
Questions/comments: I have a pair of Webers that could probably use a rebuild that I would be happy to trade? for a pair of Zeniths if that is of any interest. The Webers ran pretty well and I put new ones on anyhow, but with a rebuild they could work great I think (I also have linkage pieces). And my question is can anyone recommend someone who can rebuild Zeniths? I'm in Texas and I'm sure some of these people exist, after all there is a whole series on Bigfoot and Megladon!
Thanks

My car came with dual Webers, but a buddy of mine with a background working on classic cars told me that the main reason Webers were recommended is because folks didn't want to take the time to learn about the Zeniths.
