OK i'm inclined toward a two barrel Weber what do the experts out there recommend for a dead stock for now , daily driver. At four hundred thousand plus miles it is overdue for a rebuild but I intend to keep it on the mild side. I have several complete super sixes that I can part for the manifold and linkages. Any pitfalls I should be aware of?:D Until later Dave |

The Holley 5200 is listed at 280 cfm. What is the Carter BBD rated at? I think the Holley 1920 is in the 280 cfm range ( please correct if wrong) |

carter BBD is the same 280CFM Go for a 36 DCD or 38 DGAV both open their barrels asynchronously - would go for DGAV for single carb installation - DCD is rare and horribly expensive |

Be careful when comparing CFM ratings between different carb manufacturers. IIRC Holley and Carter (maybe others) used different vacuum levels when benchmarking their carbs (1.5"Hg vs. 2.0"Hg?) In other words, get all the info before making comparisons and choices here. -James |

I have a Weber 32/36 DGEV on a D-150 with a 3.5 rear end. The engine is stock (I did replace the Lean Burn, etc) and it has an A-833 O/D. The Weber works well, but it is somewhat difficult to tune well without a broadband fuel/air ratio meter. The 32/36 represents an "economy" choice of for fuel induction. It is worth noting that the 32/36 was designed for a 2.0 liter 4 cylinder. I am thinking about picking up a 38/38 DGEV since both barrels open at the same time vice the progressive nature of the 32/36. The 38/38 DGEV was designed for a 3.0 liter six cylinder engine--presumably the 38/38 will give greater performance without a big reduction in economy. The people who sell these carbs make it clear that if you have plans to improve your engine then you should go with the 38/38... |
