Thank you Andrew... yes it is all stock but minus the smog equipment and just a aftermarket header... I have a stock pints dizzy on it without the vacuum attached so I am sure if I had that it would of been even better...
Now that I know it works well with a stock setup an will be trying the EDIS and mejajolt system next. the wiring harness is made and ready to go, just need to calibrate the TPS on the carbs and then hook to my laptop and start mine tuning an timing map for it, should give me even more power and toque... nice thing about the megajolt is it is a 2 map system so I can have one for fuel economy and one for just wanting to romp on it, all hp map if you will....

andrew was thinking of doing a weber but i think i have changed his mind...
I can do intake, carbs and throttle cable, carbs cleaned tested and tuned for $599 this will be the luvtruck price. my website price will be $675

Isn't there a way to put a vacuum port on one of the runners on that manifold, CT?

Yes there is. I have a spot in the front runner for it I just didn’t want to open it as I will not be using it on mine...
As you can see on this pic. It is there but not threw the runner. You can finish it to use as a vacuum port or leave it like it is and use it as a mounting point for something else like maybe a wire holder or one for the heater hose, anything like that

dont think so.. this is set up for the r1 and they are the 40mm... the r1 seams to be the carb of choice from the tuners

Got the for EDIS installed and the megajolt... running great just need to do some playing now to get the max out of it...




With the magajolt in I now can tune the timing for max performance or just good old fuel economy if I wanted and anywhere in between

that’s why people like these, run them like they are or run them with a standalone computer because of the TPS on them. That will tell the computer what load the engine is under...
