    Glad that I watched your video, I just bought a pair of these and have yet to install them so i will go through them and check everything that you pointed out. Thanks for the advice

    A friend of mine bought a pair of these for a Formula Ford Super Italia Osella single-seater racecar and found them excellent value for money at £162.00 each, here in England. Formula Ford Super Italia ran a 2.0litre Pinto engine with twin down-draught Weber 40IDFs or their Solex equivalent, a limited modified cyl., and a specified camshaft. Aside from the normal fettling a carb. needs for race set-up, he didn't find too many horrors inside these Chinese clones.

    About two sets of 48 idas $190 each China carburetors they work fine power my 220 plus horsepower Volkswagen 2332 and a 2496 both set of carburetors are totally interchangeable with Weber Jets they run awesome I have no issues with them at all I will never buy another Weber carburetor again I will buy two more sets of these Chinese 48s and I will run them instead total cost $400 for a pair total cost for Weber 48 more than a grand not going to happen

      I was looking all week for an answer if weber jets worked. Just built a draw thru turbo with a doce 45. Bogs around 3500rpm. Might need bigger jets

    trying to do the throttle calibration, but those screws are too tight. Can't open them withou ruining the screw head...

      I would try using a small blow torch just to break them loose. If it doesn't work your just going to have to run them like that. Hopefully there close enough.
      Good luck 🤞

    I also bought a Weber from China (38/38 DGES). It had two fuel leaks (in incoming nossle threads and under the power valve) Most jets were unmarked. So I would agree to your conclusions in the video.

    Did you use a vacuum gauge to equalise/sync/balance the two carbs?
    Otherwise they are fighting each other.

    It would be really cool if they offered these carbs like a DIY guitar kit; Comes with everything you need, but YOU have to assemble it.........The price would be way lower than it already is. I ordered a 44 for 68.00.......I spent more on gasoline yesterday.

    Soooo... if I buy one of those cheap carbs and just disassemble it to reassemble it correctly I might have better luck?

    I have been going back and forth in my head = do I want one of those or a Progressive for a centermount? I have 1600 Engle 100 and D-Port heads . J tube and quiet pack ? Now I have a 34 and that would be the next step. I have a 71 baywindow and live in Corpus Christi and what would really be nice is a Freeway Flyer trans. Back to the engine its like trying to breath in fast with a finger in one nostril ?????
