Post subject:  Holley-Weber 5200 series carb???

I would like to here from any and all people running one of these carbs as far as how you like them and what sort of tuning you did.
I am asking because I just finished fabbing a two peice aluminum carb adapter for a super six intake.This is a two port adapter.
I am planning on using a H-W 5220 carb(originally specd for a Canadian 2.2 Omni) on a 170 equipped 63 Dart with a 3 spd and 3.23 rear.
I would like to know if you think that this is a suitable carb,what jets may need changing and where to get them and overall driving impression of this type of carburation. I already have a swinging pedal and cable for the conversion. All input ,good or bad is welcome and appreciated.

I'd go slightly larger jets and/or smaller air bleeds plus larger idle mixture dosificators. Bigger accel pump nozzle wouldn't hurt...

I can't help you there... don't know nothing about how to get weird carbs parts (or not so widely used carbs, more elaboratedly) up there. weber/solex parts do interchange in some models and some don't... any reputable speed shop? (if they're willing to let one business oportunity pass and sell you the parts... :roll: )
