I would like to hear from those of you who have installed triple twin choke
side draft Webers (Model 45DCOE) on your big Healey engines. I am considering
restoring my 3000 as a loose replica of a Sebring racing Healey. I am not
concerned about being historically accurate. The engine would be prepared for
the street, probably as follows: bored .060" over, under 10:1 compression for
premium pump gas, BJ8 cam or perhaps slightly more duration. Exhaust header.
I will be using a BJ8 transmission & overdrive. Also, stick rear Diff. gears.
I am interested in hearing if you have been able to successfully tune the
Webers for good street driveability (SP?). Also, what are your gas mileage
experiences when cruising along at 60-70 MPH.
Any other thoughts or suggestions on the subject?
Thanks,
Gary Hodson
