  1. There are two fuel jets, two air jets, emulsion tubes and pilot jets.
  2. What jets are in the new carb? If the only thing you changed was the carb, then the problem is either in the installation or in the jetting. I really doubt there's any issue with the carb itself. If you did other work too, then what was it?
  3. -3 AN is usually big enough. The turbo drain needs to be huge though.
  4. Stop removing the cap and watch the coolant level in the bottle. Every time you loosen the radiator cap, you're allowing air into the system. Top off the recovery bottle a few days in a row if need be and see if the level begins to remain constant. Note - you need to have a siphoning radiator cap. Note - you should not fill the recovery tank to the top. It needs room for expansion. Note - the recovery tank should be adequately sized. If it's too small, it will puke fluid out of the recovery tank during its cycle.
  5. You can check the preload. Best to remove the brake pads or the caliper or simply push back the pads in the caliper. Then get a cheap fish scale and pull on one of the wheel studs. If it's more than 12-15 pounds, they are too tight.
  6. It was really nice to drive.
  7. Weber DGV on a common plenum manifold actually have more usable CFM than an SU setup. As far as Weber vs Dellorto, Weber for sure. The Dellortos are fine, but you'll find a lot more info (and parts) for the Webers.
  8. I miss my little 320. Almost bought another one last year, but it never came to pass...
  9. Rancho 5000s were my go-to shocks for many years. They are inexpensive and simple, and they are hydraulic. Or at least they used to be. (EDIT - unless they changed, I'm sure they are still hydraulic. It should say in the listing notes) I have since switched to OME or Bilstein shocks, which are both gas charged. Difference? Hydraulic shocks are generally softer and smoother, but gas shocks seem to be able to handle quick changes more easily. Gas shocks also add height, while hydraulic shocks do not. I would use hydraulic shocks on anything that will see off-road use, and gas shocks on trucks where road manner are the chief concern.
  10. Compare that valve to this valve and you can see the obvious gains in flow.
  11. Sometimes it's beneficial to grind the valve out of the box. They can have a ridge that impedes flow. A three angle valve job is not only what you do to the seats, but the valve as well.
