engine and drivetrain Hello! An Race Car in Seattle :)

Oooh, interesting.. Thanks for the catch.

I know my partner previously did track days with it and it passed tech, but he hasn't done any w2w with this car. I'll bring it up with him and maybe I can get in touch with a tech inspector as well.

On the carburetor tuning part call up Patrick at Midnight Motorsport and ask for his jetting prescription. Or even drive down to the shop. I run it on my stock 02 engine and it's darn near dead on. It is a tiny tiny lean at cruising RPM but that's the only time I notice it. Other than that I think talking to him about jetting would be good!

most track day organizations don't care about or inspect cages....

So is there anything that can be done about going lean on throttle tip in? Is the accelerator pump adjustable on these webers? I tried doing a google search but I'm not really coming up with anything.

I'll take it there if I need to, I'm trying to DIY instead of spending money on a mechanic for labor.

I took apart the pump and I noticed there was a tear in the diaphragm. I ordered a new one, lets see if that will improve anything. It looks like I could put washers under the accelerator pump spring to make the diaphragm stick out further and maybe provide more fuel on tip in. Lets see what a new diaphragm does first.

Just drive down, say Hi and ask what his 32/36 prescription is, he'll tell ya what he uses, he's a good resource. I do almost everything DIY on my car except machine work, but I talk to him for local advice. He's a wealth of information. He's not doing any work so you arent paying for anything. I've talked to him for hours about my car and gotten lots of good information. Trust me, he's a guy you want to know as a DIYer.
