[Fot] Kevin Lynch's GT6

[Scott Janzen]

I have Webers on my car, and am very happy with them (replaced the SUs that were on the car when I got it).  However, if you are just getting going, and assuming the car is running well with current carburetors, I suspect you will find plenty of things to play with for several seasons before you want to think about that avenue.  Manifolds, carbs, linkage and fuel lines will set you back at least $1,500 (yes, I'm sure there's used stuff out there, but it's used) - oh, and did I mention the extra $400 worth of jets, emulsion tubes, air correctors, etc, etc, etc that you will be buying to tune it?  These engines can develop plenty of power with two SUs or Strombergs.

That said, the Webers look gorgeous and are trouble free once set up.  http://www.britishracecar.com/ScottJanzen-Triumph-GT6.htm

Hello Mark,

I read your report on Kevin's car which was the deciding factor for my son and I to buy the car and get into vintage racing. I thank you!

I have been noodling around the internet and noticed that some of these cars have triple Weber's. Is that something that we will want to do to the GT6 or are we best off leaving the carbs alone? I did note you saying that this is the fastest GT6 you have ever driven and that in handles and presents well. Please advise.

Kind regards,

Burt
