mikuni and weber carbs
i was just wondering if anyone has used carbs on their motors... i know theyre mostly used on d-series motors, but can they be used on b-series motors? i did a search and i looked on dseries.org.. cant find anything...

Re: mikuni and weber carbs (Wazup)
knew someone with a dual webber carb B16 on TWM manifold. had very prepped engine. carbs when tuned, are great, but dual sidedrafts are esentially four carbs, kind of hard to tune. i had tripple mikunis on my zcar. those carbs sound GREAT, with header, and nice exhaust system, most carb'ed engines ressemble motorcycle engine as they wind up.

Re: mikuni and weber carbs (01PYITR)
i think with this soch motor im building im gonna run dual 44 mikunis..or dual 40 webers...non vtec motors on carbs=
the person i know running carsb retains his ecu simply for start up..
the dope thing about jets is the tuning parameters
no electronics to hold u back..just raw tuning

Re: mikuni and weber carbs (90crxsi)
I used to have an 84 crx with a zc. I had a PYR head, dc header, 44 mikunis, and a 2.25 exhuast. That thing hauled *** like an all girls school bus.
Damn, thanks for the memories.
BTW I used to see my setup often in the '90s and webers made more power.

Re: mikuni and weber carbs (Cat)
yeah...carbs....ya know...how engines used to mix air and fuel before EFI...?
funny story...I was at an autoX last year...and there was an absolutely beautiful Z car with triple webbers...thing was fast!! well, he had the hood up and I was admiring the engine and some kids (read: 16-18) walked up, looked at the engine, pointed to the carbs, and asked me 'what are those?' I couldn't help but chuckle

Re: mikuni and weber carbs (carl_aka_carlos)
Hey, i've got a prelude 2.0s with a b20a3, carburated. If anyone can help me make more power in the motor, and have any info i may be interested please privately message me. I'm very interested in this honda carb motor. 2.0 L of displacement, with the right setup, would prolly haul ***. Sounds good to me

Carbs rock. Mikunis aren't around much anymore, Webers are easy to get. Check out http://www.piercemanifolds.com and http://www.twminduction.com for everything you should need.

Re: mikuni and weber carbs (Wazup)
I had a 88 hf with a zc and Mikuni's.
I had to sell the car but the motor is still in my garage.
someday I'll get another ef to put my motor in.
One of the funnest cars to drive I ever had.

Re: mikuni and weber carbs (TREVER)
My experience with carbs has been with my 74 RX-4 wagon. I had mikunis and I hated them. Never could get the setup to run correct, I switched to Webbers and those are bred to race. I was much happier. Amongst the RX7 community a majority like the webbers. I have switched to a haltec with webber type throttle bodies. Nothing beats fuel injection.
