It has 45 Weber DCOE's on it and I closed off the balance pipes because I thought it is running better in that way, but now I think it is is any better to close this balance pipes. It is probably better to to have open balance pipes, especially for idle and low rev's.</div><div>40 DCOE can be very well tuned for a street car, even with standard or fast road cam, but be prepared for some (engine) dyno time : finding out the right venturi's, jets...is not easy. Tuning Webers for a street car is more complicated for a street car than for a race car, but on the other side : Webers stay tuned once you get it right. I once had a road TR6 with overdrive, a fast road cam and HS6 SU's : that was a joy to drive, in town and on highways. I think it had some125 Bhp.</div><div>Marcel</div><hr id="zwchr" data-marker="__DIVIDER__"><div data-marker="__HEADERS__"><b>Van: </b>"fot" <fot@autox.team.net><br><b>Aan: </b>"fot" <fot@autox.team.net><br><b>Verzonden: </b>Vrijdag 28 december 2018 03:02:59<br><b>Onderwerp: </b>[Fot] TR6 Manifold<br></div><br><div data-marker="__QUOTED_TEXT__">I recently bought Craig Wensley’s nicely prepped street TR6.

I have Triumphtune manifolds on my GT6, which are stepped and don’t have the inter-connecting “balancing” tube that the Cannon does.
