Hi,

Can anyone recommend a good book on tuning my 1275 engine?

It has a Weber DCOE carb on it, most of the books I have seen cover
the stock carb setup but not the Weber setup. I browsed through a
book on Weber carbs at my local Barnes & Noble but didn't see much
as far as tuning the carb goes.

On a similar note, has anyone tried the Colortune kit sold by Moss, etc?
I'd be interested in hearing your experiences good or bad, with it.

My car has a new head, rebuilt distributor and the Weber on it, the
pistons, rings and bearings are good also, but still this car has trouble
getting out of it's own way. Any suggestions? (other than buying a
Swiftune engine and a 5 speed tranny  :)

Thanks,
