I recently purchased a used SU set with manifold and air cleaner from Dave Murphy. I sent the carbs and hardware off to Scott of Ztherapy to perform his restoration magic. I took the manifold to a l

Yep, your biggest gain would be in matching the ports (called "port matching" oddly enuf) between carburetor, manifold, and head. Smoothing wouldn't hurt, but it won't make massive gains, either. The

I'm quoting from the "Datsun Competition Preparation Manual" by Bob Sharp Racing, regarding a 1600 engine. If you do this, you're on your own. Keep in mind that Bob Sharp specified these mods as par

If you are building a race engine yes. See Fred's post. For street, go polish a bumper instead. Remember, during street use, even agressive driving, the SU damper piston is down or mid position somew

Matching the bores when there is such a small step size, and especially if they are smaller, rather than larger, than the phenolic blocks, is, as some other posts mention, probably not worth the effo

I'm not so sure. Even a small and/or partial lip anywhere in the airflow path MIGHT tend to create interference swirls far out of proportion with what you'd think. You're pushing the air column again

Horse power TV last week had a segment on port grinding. They tested the flow rates with a big vacume and with some complicated equations and came up with some impressive HP results. Now where the HP

If the opening in the phenolic block were smaller than the matching opening in the manifold, presenting an obstructive step in the flow path, that would be more intrusive, I would think, than the sit

In my other post, I mentioned that Bob Sharp specified these smoothing mods as part of a set of changes, including cutting down the carb throttle shafts and butterflys, needle and dashpot oil changes
