    Killer 331

    Over on Club Cobra there is an engine for sale at a remakable price. I know the individual Morgan Leblanc who has/built it and it is the best of eveything, huge sacrifice moneywise. If you want a track motor that needs nothing this is it and it is fresh.

    Full Radius Air Horns

    Has anyone investigated and found a source for Full Radius Air Horns for the 48 IDA carbs? I need some that are approx 1.5" tall to fit inside an Air Filter element. ITG has told me they do not offer them. There seems to be some available, but none that I have found have the sleeve that slides...

    Air filters with 48 IDA's

    This general topic has been discussed quite a bit but I have to ask if any one has used the Pipercross Competition type air fiters on an IDA setup for a 289/302 Ford??? I don't see this application listed on their Website?

    Morgan +4

    I have a real good friend that just bought a Morgan +4. 1st on the agenda is to convert it to a 5 speed via T-9 gearbox using a TR4 Belbousing and some brilliant machining. Is this done often in the "Mother Country"? Any specialty shops for Bits and Bobs for these cars? Thanks ....Rick

    Reshafting 48IDA's

    Recently I noticed there is air (vacuum) being pulled though one of the end bearings on 1 of the IDA's. This got me to thinking that maybe the inner 2 bores for the throttle shaft in the aluminum body of the carb may need to be resized. These were used carbs that were rescued from some VW...

    Fuel pressure & supply

    There is some controversy over the need for relatively low fuel pressure in the Webers (2.5#-3#). Is this caused by the inability for the needle/seat fuel valve to control pressures above this? Are the current valves suspect/faulty? Several years ago a company (D & G valve) made a product called...
