Would this work? Dellorto 48 on ebay

Sorry Mark, I\'m moved on into something new.......

Doh!, never mind.  Wife really isn\'t happy about me even thinking about another one
Still, im going to see what I can do.  Would need to get rid of my current FC\'s first though, so will just have to see if yours is around in the near future.

mr hanky ive been out with rotorheid in his car before to give it a little shakedown before an upcoming event and i must say it goes like stink has all the right bits and sounds fapping epic in a short find the money and buy it

Just spotted this and was wondering if anyone knew what a DCO is?

Nah he means "DCOE".  No Weber 48 DCOE and yes I agree a single 45DCOE is probably too little for a 13B.  (Used to run twin 45DCOEs on an ickle 150bhp Escrot MkI ).  No Weber 48DCOE but yes you can rejet a 50 down a bit.  Rough rule of thumb for DCOE type is 45 Dellorto = 40 Weber and 48 Dellorto = 45 Weber.  Lots of heated debates down the pub over that one but empirical evidence proves it!

The IDA sounds like a better bet.  Or twin Weber 40DCOEs.

Actually I take that back - there is a DCO/SP which comes as 48/50/55 mm. Don\'t  know how that differs from a DCOE though...

Sorry - totally bad form to reply to my own posts but...

To answer my own question: a DCO is like the IDA in that it doesn\'t have a choke (whereas the DCOE does have a choke)

Unfortunately its not looking good.  Even if I could get the money, Im not sure if I could afford to run it judging by the MPG when flat out
Also, I have no trailer, so always have to consider actually driving to the track as well.  Real shame as it does look like a bargain.

Lol, no problem.  I am still considering the 48IDA and the Dellorto 48.  Will just keep a look out for either of them.
 
Thanks again all.
