Re: New Carb
Here are the horsepower and torque curves for the Weber on an otherwise stock engine. A high compression head will also help.
https://www.modelaparts.net/dynosheets.htm/web3236.htm Here is a touring engine with the Weber and a higher compression head. https://www.modelaparts.net/dynoshee...pintoweber.htm Throw in a cam and some bigger valves and it goes up. Best to have a stronger lower end with anything over 60 hp.

Re: New Carb
Have had both. Prefer the Zenith. Car runs great, not leaks, looks right.
Enjoy. |

Re: New Carb
Does anyone know if JR Bullock is still in business? His website no longer is there.
Took my Zenith off to try and locate a leak that has been an ongoing problem since I bought my 29 Fordor. Turns out the lower body is cracked at the secondary well and the previous owner/restorer tried to spot weld and paint it. So now I'm looking to replace my carb. |
