because I will be installing the headers I have soon and hopefully a cam as well.
How do you like your cam? Sorry for so many questions.

Off topic:
Sarge,
Where are you located in Illinois? I was just up there this last friday.
Re: Weber 32/36DGV verses the Weber 38DGES
Hey Yod,
I know you mentioned you had a Air/Fuel ratio meter, now that your getting close to your final jetting has the A/F meter made any
since to it all ?
Re: Weber 32/36DGV verses the Weber 38DGES
I'm 10 miles north of Interstate 80 in Ohio , little burg just north of Princeton .
For the guys that complain about idling problems with the dual throats, the 38DGAS is a bit of a pain to balance but shouldn't be
that much of a problem. I've seen several lately that had issues with the valve timing on the secondary , the gear drive has to be
synch'd to make the idle work right . What kind of price on the 40DFAV??

Re: Weber 32/36DGV verses the Weber 38DGES
I didn't get a price nailed down because I wasn't really interested. A guy bought one and changed his mind or something like that.
From what I remember it is new in the box. He is a friend of a guy that I talk to.

Sarge, yeah man, that filter looks pretty cool. what colors do they come in. I think I'd prefer red. and you just clean 'em with soap
& water?
I'm gonna do some reading on making hood scoops. I'd like to find a nice, low profile, smooth curved fiber one that I could cut
into my hood.
Ron, no sweat man, as long as you're learning something... this is how most of us learned what we know -- we'd come on here,
do some reading on what other people are doing, and then feel inspired to start doing stuff to our own trucks, come back on with
questions, etc. before you know it, you're offering advice to other people. man, if you're happy with the way your engine is running
now, just make a note of what your current settings are for timing, carb setup & jetting, and play around some. that way, you can
always go back if you want to. I had to laugh outloud at your comment about pushing an old lady down the steps, heheh. as far as
the 40/40 goes, I know that I had trouble running mine, but I'm almost POSITIVE that was because my ignition timing was so
screwed up. again, you can make notes of how you're setup right now, switch to the 40 and play with it, and then switch back if
you don't like it. if you're going to buy new, I'd say go with the 38, but if you can get a good deal on the 40, you could try it out.
and if you don't want it, turn Sarge onto the guy so he can add another Weber to his collection.
Hey Jeff, what's up? yeah man, I've got that A/F meter, but when I changed to the Thorley header, I never got around to hooking
it back up. maybe I'll do that tonight... I've been curious, myself.

I think the filters come in red,yellow, blue, green and black . Most of the stock order I put in for are red , I'll add one of the
1000cfm units to that order for next week . If you don't want it I'm sure someone will grab it . Speaking of collections, I just got an
email the 36DCNV I bought in England has shipped. Hope it gets here soon, just dying to play with it and see how the circuits are
laid out. I'm also going to order one of new one-off designs that is destined to replace the 32/36 Weber . These are made
somewhere in the Eastern block , possibly the Ukraine.
