docbainey Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Scored some Z round tops today, I was wondering if anybody has done the same. Need some tuning info. I had 2000 carbs on my 610 in the early 80s with no tuning on a stock L20B and it ran kinda rich, livened it up though. Then I built the car to ITB spec, cage included to this day, so I offed the manifold & carbs (what a dope!) Anyways, what nozzeles and needles should I be close to. I got the Weber 32/36 or whatever it is on now. Driving on the street primarly, 19 miles the last 3 years, so ITB is out now, looking at some increased stret performance cheap. Lookin to put together a good low end motor. Probably Z22 crank @ an 85mm bore, light cam, header. I just need some numbers for needles and nozzles that work well, what a ramble! Thanx!

Sealik Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 What needles are in the SUs now? Most likely need some fatter ones due to the smaller displacement of the L20. Have a manifold? Stock 510/38mm SU linkage will not work.....L6 can be shortened to fit. I have RN needles...very thin (rich)...not sure if they will work on my LZ23 yet http://community.ratsun.net/topic/25497-sealiks-shit/page__st__560 Quote Link to comment
docbainey Posted January 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 The SUs are in transit. I don't have a manifold yet. The carbs are coming with a Z manifold, I'll probably look at chopin it up and doing some welding. Quote Link to comment
hogboy52 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Volvo B20B (2 liter) with twin HS6's used KN needle. Should be quit close. Quote Link to comment

Son_of_a_Datsun_Guy Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 You can buy needles from Z Therapy last I checked. http://ztherapy.com/ Go to master price list and then look under 240z... I think that they are $30 for the pair. Quote Link to comment
