IIRC there are 7 different calibrated items on a DCOE carb. Let's see if I
can recall them all:
1. Chokes
2. needle and seat
3. idle jets
4. main jets
5. pump jets
6. air corrector jets
7. emulsion tubes
Hey what do you know, I still remember them all!
Anyway my point is, the carbs do not come out of the box set for the car.
Most likely all 7 of those adjustable items will be wrong for your buddies
car.
If you don't know Webers trying to dial in DCOEs is a stone bitch.
The upside is a set of Webers does add 52 show power to the car.
Me? I would stay with SUs.
