65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

I want your opinion. I have a Bing 15 I would like to use in order to save cheddz, but I'm not sure if it will do the kit justice. 15 or 19?

19 phbg.

The intake hole on the metra kit is huge.

Make sure to have an matching intake to fit.

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

Just run the 15 Bing. That is what I run and it rips. Jet 72 to 82. Yeah I don't know anyone who runs a 19. You'll be fine.

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

I'd rather run the bing for simplicity on my first kit install because I am so familiar with it, but I don't want to sacrafice a lot of performance. Thanks guys, anyone else?

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

I run my metra with a 15mm bing. Works great.

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

Is case matching a must for a worthwhile increase in performance?

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

you have the cylinder off allready why not case match?

its VERY easy and takes no time at all

coco, you beter explain how to case match I suspect he is in over his head on the carb question already.

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

I just ordered a 19mm dellorto for my metra kit. The 15mm bing i used on my polini just doesn't push that kit enough. Hell they even recommend using a 19-21mm carb. Do it.

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

I understand how and why to case match, I am just worried about effing up my engine on my first true project (for which I have already purchased a lot of parts).

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

just remove a little material at a time,you can allway go back and remove more if you like.

youll be fine

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

I run a 70cc Athena kit with that carb no probs

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

I'm pretty satisfied the 16mm Malosi intake/Dellorto SHA combo. Anything will work, it's just depends on what you're looking for.... I like well roundeed reliable drivability.

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

I like the sound of that (the 15 bing). I'm not trying to create a finicky rocket, I just want it to hit mid to high forties and be fairly reliable.

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

I'd go for the 19mm Dellorto. We soft seized that kit twice running a 15mm Bing (even with a 92 jet) given there may have been other factors, but better safe than sorry.

Re: 65 Metrakit for maxi...which carb?

i've run mine SUPER reliable, hundreds of miles on a 14 bing, all through those long ass kalamazoo rides, through richmond city and way the fuck out into the country with NEVER A problem. somewhere around 32:1 or 40:1 mix and a 78 jet.
