how amenable to persuation is this fiat owner? my car is a suck-thru turbo .. at the recent brisbane cruise there was another 18RC like mine - CD175 stromberg infront of the turbo - i've also seen a few with a single side-draft weber infront of the turbo. you'll be consuming time trying to get the webbers running - they're designed to have atmospheric pressure on the outside, the float chamber vents, metering passages rely on differences between manifold vacuum and atmo-pressure,... the easiest way to solve that is to put the entire carbi in a box that's fed the compressed air from the turbo you'll also need a rising rate fuel pressure regulator (to squeeze the fuel thru to the carbi when it gets pressurised) and air-tight seals around any throttle/choke linkages. you'll also need a blow-off valve for when you take foot right off accel after having foot flat to the floor - essential unless you want seals to fail on the air-tight box and the butterflys to remain flat. having bagged this humble weber, a quick search for "turbo webber" and "turbo weber" found: <http://forums.toymods.org.au/index.php?t=msg&g oto=49973&rid=2087&S=ab0976f3e90026787d3aa 47d93feb2cd> and <http://forums.toymods.org.au/index.php?t=msg&g oto=156637&rid=2087&S=ab0976f3e90026787d3a a47d93feb2cd> and <http://forums.toymods.org.au/index.php?t=msg&t h=9506&rid=2087&S=ab0976f3e90026787d3aa47d 93feb2cd&pl_view=&start=0#msg_76041> and <http://forums.toymods.org.au/index.php?t=msg&g oto=4567&rid=2087&S=ab0976f3e90026787d3aa4 7d93feb2cd> plus this on the web seem relevant: <http://datsun1200.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php? topic_id=6404&forum=1> [Report message to a moderator]
