I've been planning for a carburetor upgrade on my '77 B car from the original single ZS, looking at the information available on the internet and finally bought the book on power tuning. The downdraf

Most who dis-regard the Weber say that it's an economy carb not It will be better than the ZS. A properly rebuilt set of SUs require little maintenance. Apparently, the next issue of Classic Motorspo

I do not know why SU's get such a bad reputation. Possibly because they don't *look* like an American carburetor? The SU type carb is essentially the same as the CD (Constant Depression) type carbs u

You have to get very honest about what you are trying to do. The Weber Down Draught is a cost effective replacement for the original carburetor. Make sure you also budget to replace the exhaust mani

That's exactly the reason, which raises the question, If someone is afraid of British automotive technology, why buy a British car? Since my first car was an MGB, and my second car was a BMW 1800-02/

The only advantage of using a Weber for street MGs is that you can say "I have a Weber on mine". Those in the know will smile inwardly and mouth "Stupid bugger". Unless you are into hot motors stick

I think that is a bit harsh. I classify myself as being "in the know" and I would only snicker slightly! Seriously. The DGV is an ok carburetor, but it just does not match the tortuous intake path o
