- This carb was in rough shape when it hit the bench. Now it looks better than new for an old carburetor. Can't thank yall enough for the support and watching the videos. Any comments, questions, suggestions, would be much appreciated!!
Thanks,

I'm hoping to upgrade to a weber sometime, thanks so much!
It looks great and fairly easy to put together. Thanks for showing how to.
I actually just bought one of these for my stockport 12a literally last night lol
Hell yea man!!!! I love these carbs. So easy!!
I’m looking for one as well
Did set the float level. That will help the transition from idle to mains, the higher the float the quicker the main will come on.
Yea!! On the 50 DCO I am running I finally got it all dialed in. Changed the choke tubes a bit smaller and it helped with my off idle stumble for the big bridgeport engine. This 45 is going on a stock 12a. So it should be super easy to dial in. Thank you for the insight!!!
@@RADPotential I saw that video today and I wondered if that was your final settings. Nice👍
nice screwdriver drop
Had to leave it in lol. You'll have that :)
What venturi do you use for 48 ida carb?
See you ended up with a side draft instead of a down draft. Nice!
It's not for the rally car. Rebuild for will Mueller
@@RADPotential ah good got scared there lol
I sent my 13b to a "specialist" For a rebuild and after $3,000 I got an engine with 60psi. The "specialist" Say that I have to run 1,000 miles to improve engine compression. Engine not even start without ATF help. Is it true what the specialist said? Please your advise.
Id say that is not an ideal rebuild. Yes you will see an increase in compression as the seals bed in, but I dont think it will bump 20 psi... I usually like to see better than 80 psi for compression numbers on an engine I rebuild. Even using some used parts. Or not surfacing housings. 80 psi will pretty much start regardless of a good/bad tune
@@RADPotential thanks for your answer! Time to cry 😭
Id ask him what seals he used and what side seal clearances. Solid corner seals? Also did you get to see the housings condition when the engine came apart?
@@RADPotential I saw the housings, they were in good condition. I will ask him about seals. Thanks
I have noticed a significant loss of compression using Solid Corner seals, especially if the side seal clearances aren't checked to those seals
Adjust the few harsh sound and you could tag it as ASMR lol
Gravity is a bitch
sometimes them screwdrivers get away from you haha
What was this off?
It's going on a 12a rotary
@@RADPotential thanks for the reply but I meant what car would it come off originally
I dont know that this carb would have come on a car from the factory. It's an aftermarket carb.
@@RADPotential cool looking forward to the rally car
I think in the early 60s and 70s, you would have found carbs much like a sidedraft DCOE on some of the Italian and European cars.
