Reply to "Weber carbs - owners speak out"

Yes George, I think that I said it was a race carb. But the cause of the transition problem in the IDA is as I described. The third transition fixes nothing in this set up. Not with an F5 main tube.
I know that the IDF is a better application for the street. I have not tried them.
When I had to make my decision on the manifold last May, there was only one manifold available for my A3's or even the iron 4v (that's two, yes I know, but who's counting). Technically you are wrong too. There is a Hilman-Moody manifold. It appears to be the first of the first. There is a Detomaso manifold which appears to be a copy of the H_M. (don't ask about that one, you don't want to know) The Hall manifold is a copy of the Detomaso, but beefed up.
There were no adaptors available from Red-line or Inglese at the time of decision. Did I check with Australian Yellow Pages, no, sorry I didn't.
I am not being argumentative here about anything. I refer to what former President Clinton once said, "it all depends on what is is"
