[6pack] DUAL WEBER 45 MCHH TRIUMPH CONVERSION KIT

[Bill]

This may be heresy, but I am of the opinion that for normal street 
use almost all Triumphs are over carbureted ... At the Monteray 
Historics one year there was a Factory modified Sebring Sprite ... it 
had only one downdraft weber, and was faster than snot, in the "race" 
it participated in it easily out ran all its competitors.  Some one, 
I think it was Vance, said "keep it simple", which I agree with whole 
heartily.  In the book "How to repair your foreign car" the chapter 
on carburetor is sub-titled "carburetor ... a French word for DO NOT 
TOUCH".  I have found this to be pretty much true, as 99% of my 
carburetor problems were really ignition.  But that is entirely 
another subject.

>5-speed trans (and some I've likely forgotten) tested at 125 rwhp.  So those
