Dual Carb setup

[ducky]

Hey guys,

I've been browsing through the forums for a few days and somehow am either missing, or there isn't, a thread about a good dual carb setup... I'm saving for the replacement of my single, probably stock, carb. On eBay, I've found:

 

 

Is this a fair price for a kit? Is this a good size? They say in the description that 45's are available. Should I go that route? Is it better to piecemeal a set together? I don't have a lot of questions, but I have enough to keep me from buying.

 

Thanks for any help!

What motor ?

I'm sorry! It's an L18

40s are better to run on the street

Long manifold runners = brake master interference on a Datsun 620.

 

There are shorter intake manifolds available. Or you could ditch the brake booster and mounting pedestal.

Thanks for the info! Do you know where to find these shorter manifolds? I've been searching, and it seems everyone, despite clearance issues, sell the longer 4.5" manifolds... It seems odd that would be the case.
