Snopczynski Posted April 23, 2008 Report Posted April 23, 2008 If your gonna run that motor in a paraglider with a cheetah cylinder setup then I would recommend buying them. Quote
mopar1rules Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 (edited) If your gonna run that motor in a paraglider with a cheetah cylinder setup then I would recommend buying them. lol.... axlracing, you want to put a 35mm carb, on your stock bore 350 shee? i'm sorry, but that would be like throwing a holley 750 double pumper on a 4 cylinder neon...totally uneccessary. i wouldn't go any bigger than 28mm on your stock-unported shee.

RAYTECH Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 He said 38's not 35's. Imagine drinking beer out of a bottle. Now imagine drinking beer out of a five gallon bucket. Alot of wasted beer and your going to just fall on your face. You intake and exhaust ports are like your mouth and stomach. They can only handle what they can flow. Your stock ports were designed for 26mm mabey 28mm carbs. The only way to handle the increase in fuel is to incrase the flow [ i.e. port work or aftermaket cylinders]. Basically bigger isn't always better in this case. Now go get me a beer your questions are making me thirsty!!!!! Quote
mopar1rules Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 raytech, perfect example you had with the beer! oh yeah, i meant to type 38mm instead of 35mm. Quote
axlracing Posted April 24, 2008 Author Report Posted April 24, 2008 alright alright sorry i really dont know much about carbs i mostly ride mx dirtbikes just recently picked up a banshee but the five gallon pale of beer does sound good Quote
mopar1rules Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 i'm wasn't making fun of you. just kinda joking along. all of us where at the beginner stage at some point in our life too:) Quote
