So you can use the smog stuff if it is required and with the Offy installed it will be legal for those who have to have it? I don't need to worry about the smog stuff here, but I have had a couple people asking me about it recently.

I think so Mokadeth. The Offy had all the smog provisions that my stock intake had.

Mokadeth I was wondering if you have any more intakes and how much are they thanks

Mokadeth I was wondering if you have any more intakes and how much they were i have a 81 4x4 so would prefer dual plane thank you

Good news for CA Luv owners for the 76-79. Back in 1986 Redline approach Calirfornia Air Resource Board (CARB) and had them test a kit they had for the Weber to show it would not effect emissons on the Luv.

"Redline, Inc, a distributor of Italian made Weber carburetors, has applied for exemption from the prohibitions of Vehicle Code Section 27156 for the Redline Conversion Kits No. k8602 and No. K8662 using one (1) Weber Model 32/34 DFT9 A or 32/34 DFT11 A carburetor. These Redline Caruretor Conversion Kits are designed to replace the Hitachi Carburetors found on 1972-1979 Chevrolet LUV pick-up trucks with 1.8 liter engines. "

So CA Luv owners 76-79 could buy the offy intake and put the above webers mentioned on there. The article also states there a couple of hoses you can remove. It's a long document (27 pages), but I know it's in there. lol
It sucks for the 1980 though. I don't know why Redline did not include that year.

I asked Redline about a replacment for the 1980 Luv, but the said they had no carburetors for that year that would pass smog. I also submitted the question through SmogTips.com to a smog ref. He said the Carburtetor has to have an OE on the model to pass smog.

"When all else fails, follow the directions".

That's great news for the people who are required to have the smog stuff! I don't see why the 1980 would be exempt, as far as I knew it was the same carb and maybe even the same for the '81 and '82? The Offy would work anyway with the stock carb if you got an adapter or had one fabricated. Offy did used to make an intake for the stock carb and I think I mentioned it in the past, but no one seemed to show any interest. Anyway, that is great news for the people who want to upgrade to the Weber. I still have plenty of the #6204-CW intakes if anyone wants one.

Finally got my Offy installed this weekend.
Even given that I have yet to properly tune my Weber to this altitude,
the improvement was pretty dramatic. (I got the dual plane version)
I would not say it had a major increase in actual net horsepower, (Which I largely attribute to the tune on the carb), but it has horsepower where it never had it before!
Both in the bottom end, and the top end.
It felt like it actually was trying to break the 215/75/15's loose a bit off the line,
And it required only 1/8 inch of pedal to maintain 55mph, whereas I would have had my foot in it before.
VERY HAPPY!!

Glad you are happy! I don't know the feeling yet as I haven't had mine installed yet, but based on all the positive comments I am sure I will be happy someday as well. I am beginning to wonder if the dual port is the intake to have instead of the #6204? I seem to have had more requests for those lately, but I didn't have many made. Maybe next time around I will get more of the dual port made if enough people are interested.

I believe I sent you a message a month or two ago. Just let me know when you are ready for one as I still have the #6204-CW in stock.
