Guy's where is the best place to go to get Webbers Tunned and the timing done how much would it rougly cost and how much for dyno tune? as i've been to one place in Asquith and they are just a bunch of grumpy old men which want to charge an arm and a leg, (does that ryme?) anyway only other places i know deal with turbo engines so i would like to know where all you guys go to get your Webber engines tunned in Sydney

i guess you mean weber sidedraughts
why not buy a guage and tune them yourself ? its not that tricky, and its probably easier than trying to find someone who knows how to do it properly..hell most people hevent even heard of tuning them by ear anymore !
Also do you know if the venturis, jets and emulsifyer tubes etc are all right for the job ? if not i have a program that works out what you need depending on the powerband you want the car to run in, email me at raskas@iinet.net.auif you want it

im in exactly the same boat there dude.... i want to be able to tune my webbers also.... twin 45mm webers!
i got told about a place in pendle hill who are good with webers: "Rallyquip". i gave them a call, for a dyno weber tune it starts at $132, then $60p/h plus parts if required (new jets etc)
im considering giving it a go, cos my 18RGU it a bit messy after 5009rpm, and i wouldnt mind seeing a power graph of my shitbox

that sounds like a good cost as i was quoted $300 maybe $400 to tune my by those grupmy guys in asquith its just i would be very happy knowing my engine is running at its peak as i always have the feeling that it could be better, but thanks to raskas who was the first person who replied to me gave me a very useful sight address which has very detailed instructions on how to tune a weber for yourself its worth a look and also has lots of other useful information on it.

i think its hard to find someone who actually knows the ins and outs of how to really tune a weber and if you find someone like that i suggest you consider yourself very lucky

i think people have some kinda fear about weber/dellorto sidedraughts ,they are actually a very simple carb...just rip one to bits and you'll see 
That book one power tuning carbs is also a very good piece of info
