I am running a 32/36 on a mild-ish G200 with extractors and a nice cam. Would I be better off with a 34/34 Weber? Secondly, I am guessing a 34/34 will not bolt up to an adaptor for a 32/36?

If a 34/34 is a better idea, what kind of gains can I expect over a 32/36?

Cheers

Well recently i pulled off my 32/36 and bolted the 34ADM straight in its same place , there was no adapter plate needed...

And i also did notice a slight betta performance in the 34ADM at all round speeds from 0-140km/p/hr . it must blow through a more finer type off spray or something? with those larger type jets??

Hey Benjamin,

The 34 ADM is a bigger carby in general, so when jetted correctly, will let the engine make more torque than a correctly jetted 32/36. The gains made at mid to high rpm will generally mean a loss at low rpm, but due to it being a progressive carb, you can overcome some of this with foot control, ie, not simply pushing your foot to the floor at low rpm.

BTW, it mounts on the same adaptor plate as a 32/36 and should be able to use the same aircleaner, with perhaps some slight cutting.

I have no idea of gains, maybe 'several percent'!

I've never seen a cracked venturi. Do you mean main venturis or the booster venturis (the ones that sit in the main venturi to deliver the fuel)?
