Reply to "Carb replacement"

mikedMember

George: Thanks for the advice. My main problem with the stock carb is what appears to be vapor lock on hot days. The car will be running fine, then all of a sudden, just starts sputtering, then dies. After a little while, it will start right up and run fine. Other than a cooling system upgrade, and the replacement of the stock Campy's with new Boyd's, and original Arivas (my car only has 5,700 original miles), the balance of the car is completely stock. The carb (and intake manifold) upgrade I'm thinking about is primarily for reliability/drivability, but it would also be great to gain a little more HP.
