I'm in an evaluation stage... about to face some realities. One is: I'm NOT likely to get around to using this set of 45MM Weber side draught carbs I've been hoarding.

Anyone looking to acquire a set of used (sat on a shelf for YEARS, too) 45 DCOE Webers should PM me. I'll try and post some pix over the weekend.

<span style="font-style: italic">EDIT: Of course Basil will get a tithing from all the sales!
</span>
 
So... you cleaning up, making space? Finally getting to those projects?
 
ooh ooh! I could buy them, and then they could sit on my shelf for years to come! hmmmm... Nah.. Street cars and DCOE 45s is a tough mix. you gotta be hard core. I bet they sell quick though.
 
Nice try, Don.

Some other things I may put in the "sell it!" pile:

2L Alfa engine (complete but TIRED).
1600 Alfa engine (disassembled).
1300 Alfa engine (same: "kit" form).
Lotus 907 cams & upper "troughs".

I'll be getting into the shed too!!! I think there's a Ford gearbox in there I may need to qualify and offer up. LOTS of Alfa GTV exterior trim parts.
 
Webers are 45 DCOE 9's. They were on a 1750 Alfa I bought back in '77... waaay over-inducted. They've been on a shelf for thirty years but will clean up to be like new. BCF members get 'em at $500, plus whatever shipping expense. I put 'em on Craig's, too. At $50 more.

Jetting as follows:


Idle jets: 50 F 11
Emulsion tubes: F16
Main jets: 125
Air correctors: 180
Choke jets: 60 F 5
Accelerator pump jets: 35
Aux. Venturi: 32mm
Float needle/seat: 150


If I get *stuff* over the price vs. appearance I'll go thru 'em, clean and renew gaskets/seals.
After that the price goes UP! :devilgrin:
