For my engineering project im doing a carburettor
Been looking at weber twin 45 carbs
Does anyone have any good links for information on carbs? Post up anything you may have, the weber website is crap
Away to have a look at deleroto carbs.
Might be easier doing a standard carb? Was looking at doing a vauxhall engine of some sort, what engines came with carbs? SR novas?

Its an engineering project, just started it but basically I think it just involves loads of research. Its for an HNc in mechanical engineering. Have to carry out research, look at the best materials etc

Buy "engine managment" by Dave Walker
He knows more about carbs than anyone else

Try this -

Haven't read it, but I would assume it would tell you the different metals used etc.

I guess your project is like one I did. Though mine was on the oil pump of a Zetec engine. Take one apart. List the parts and see if they are magnetic. Name them. Name suitable materials for them. Name suitable mehtods of manufacture. Photograph and document.

Lots of them use a 32/34 DTML Weber as it bolts straight on.
I think the original one is a Stomberg.
