[Spridgets] Weber Conversion

[Ron Soave]

Hi John, yes I run 45. Actually use it on both the race in the street cars. 40 would certainly be sufficient, but I was able to get them to run nicely on the 45, and I gave you the flexibility if I ever wanted to go little crazier with a motor. On the race motor, I’m getting a no kidding honest dyno 131 hp at the flywheel. Even better is 105 foot pounds of torque. Keep me posted.
