B230 upgrade cam - Page 2

Madmatt01 · Oct 25th, 2013, 08:32

Yes it's non turbo.
I used to use the side draught carb, but recently got a webber style manifold. All it requires is for the carb bolt holes to be filed out a matter off millimeters to sit on perfect.

I'm trying to keep in cheap / simple at the moment as it's a learning curve for me. If parts do pop up then I will always enquire.

Thank you guys for the help so far!

Madmatt01 · Oct 25th, 2013, 18:08

Unsure, will take some photos tomorrow. Inlet manifold I presume?

davebslater(uk) · Oct 25th, 2013, 19:52

yeah , inlet manifold

Madmatt01 · Oct 26th, 2013, 10:11

Hopefully this works...

Madmatt01 · Oct 26th, 2013, 10:12

Manifold...

Madmatt01 · Oct 26th, 2013, 10:15

Manifold with carb on

yeah thats the one , it was made as an emissions setup , itll be interesting to see if it makes more power with a weber on it .

the strombergs are easy to tune by filing the needle down....

the way i look at it , the manifold you have has to make the air mixture make more turns ... the stromberg setup only has two..

A few off the local racers say webers are better for the short oval racing.
Guess il just have to do a trial / error.

Still after a suitable cam?

the X cam was actually developed with that manifold in the B230K
