Carby Question

Hi guys,
The carby on my 2S-C is on its way out and and I don't know whether to replace it with another 2S carby or to get a weber for it. Would this sort of modification do anything to perfomance/fuel consumption? Also would it give me a faster throttle response? At the moment it is very sluggish when you put the foot down, almost like there is something pushing against the car in the opposite direction you are moving in. It feels like it wants to go but just can't.
What would be the ideal weber for it? Maybe a cortina carby with adapter plate?
Oh, yeah, the 2S is in a KE55.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Anthony.

Maybe it's just too close to my bedtime, but if you must persist with the 2S, maybe EFI parts from an SV11 would be the go for some kind of 'conversion'?

what do you mean on it's way out?
carbies will either get dirty, or the throttle shafts wear... htere is nothing else to really go wrong with them...
if you must go carby, downdraught weber with small primary choke (NOT the 32/36 ford carb) should go ok.
sound slike the rest of the motor needs some help also..
replace the normal tuning parts, clean the carby and see how it goes first..
love_KE70.. you are not very adventurous are you 
carbies and vac systems are easy... you just need a diagram

maybe not the most adventurous 16 yr old but i do more than other guy at my school so thats gotta mean somethin
my issue with using a different carby is that you now dont have a diagram appropriate for that carby and car, u may have one for the original carby, but that didnt help when it sed i should have 5 little pipes on one side and i had 2. hence my swap back.
anywho why do people find it necessary to change to a different carby? how much difference does it really make?

Thanks for the help guys. Yeah I know its a 2S but it's all I have at the moment. A conversion is definitely on its way, but I just don't have the cash to do it yet. All I want to do is get it running smooth for now just so it's not a bitch to drive.
oldcorollas, where can I get a downdraught weber from (what car/engine) and approximately how much would it cost?
Thanks again for the help.
