Weber 32/36DGV verses the Weber 38DGES

yodta (pooh bah) Sat Oct 29 2005 04:00 PM Attachment I'd asked him for the vacuum readings on the ported & manifold ports at varying engine speeds. no biggie, I can swap in my stock distributor pretty quickly and get that data. oh, by the way, I found an Edelbrock "Ramflo type" foam filter at Pep Boys a while back. I bought it just because it had the 5.25" adapter which fit over an adapter I'd gotten from LCE a while back. it lifted the filter up higher, away from the carb air horns, so should make for smoother flow into the throats in addition to making more of the filter usable. I also cleaned the element in a fairly weak mixture of Simple Green with warm water. I oiled the filter with 30wt. motor oil to catch more of the finer dust particles. and just FYI, the filter element that came with the Edelbrock assy. -- cheap. junk. -- not as durable feeling as the Ramflo one. Re: Weber 32/36DGV verses the Weber 38DGES here's a shot of the baseplate and how it sits above the air horns. you can see how it can funnel the air better to the throats than before when filter mounting surface of the baseplate was down around the air horns instead of above them.

That's the cleanest carb I've ever seen sitting on an engine that runs!!!! Gnarls. Re: Weber 32/36DGV verses the Weber 38DGES The only issue with the adapter is the most common one I post , it alters the air flow into the throats like almost every adapter out there. That air has to flow straight into the venturis to make them work correctly on any carb, especially the Webers. The cam timing issue is not usually the cam or it's manufacturer, instead it's the engine. Unless Toyota was dead consistent on build thicknesses, the relationship in height at the head will affect cam timing. I see this a lot in many other motors that use a single overhead cam design. Once the head is removed for planing or gasket changes the height relationship is changed. Another problem is timing degree marks, spend the time to properly TDC and engine and see where the marks are lined up at, most are off a few degrees. This explains why some engines feel so strong and others just run ok , even factory designed/built stuff. I know Toyota's legendary quality well, out of all the builder's I'd trust their stuff more than anyone for sure. That's the biggest reason I'm swapping in a set of their axles , lol. Gnarls is right, get that ping stopped now. Pre-ignition is a terrible thing on valves, not to mention what it does to rod bearings. The only saving grace is you have nearly diesel spec'd sizes on that crank... I thought you were running an a/f meter already?
