[6pack] DUAL WEBER 45 MCHH TRIUMPH CONVERSION KIT

[Navarrette, Vance]

	Looks like a high quality kit, and I would expect it to work well, unlike the
Weber down draft conversion with its flow restricting "swan neck" manifolds.
	Webers are superior to the Zeniths (and SUs) because they inject the fuel in
the center of the air stream, which yields a more uniform fuel mixture. The
benefits are most evident at higher RPM on tuned engines, but are very real.
	My one concern would be resale value, as modded cars typically are worth less
than stockers, but it is your car so do what you want. Me, I prefer the stock
look.
	I checked out the classic motorsports article on the conversion and it looks
like a valid set of data, although I am a bit puzzled. Stock was 74 RWHP which
seems low, should be about 90(?) but then the car may well have been a bit
tired. Then they modded the car, got the 0-60 to 8.4 seconds or so and said
that they had 100RWHP. This too seems a bit low to me for the HP number.
	Other than that, looks groovy.

Anyone out there tried the DUAL WEBER 45 MCHH TRIUMPH CONVERSION KIT sold
on eBay.
I was about to have my stock strombergs rebuilt but came across
these on ebay. They seem like a pretty good deal for the price...less than a
professional rebuild on the stocks.

Any comments?
