Re: just not pulling hard enough *inuendo...what's that?* hehe

Your guess sounds spot on for the top end cut out. A possibility for the late power pick up is if you have a twin throat carby who's second throat isn't opening until you have very high gas flows.   ----- Original Message ----- From: David Costello To: Online Datsun Club Sent: Tuesday, 20 June 2000 10:44 AM Subject: just not pulling hard enough *inuendo...what's that?* hehe   my L16 revs fairly hard till 5300 then suddenly throws you back and launches forward but only for like another 500rpm then just sits even and stops accelerating   I was trying to work out how I can get it to keep pulling after this power burst and only thing I could come up with is that's where the cams power curve begins but it's not getting enough fuel for those kind of revs am I right? if so does anyone have a set of twin carbs and manifold they want to sell?   dunno if this helps you or not but it's an L16 with port matched head/manifold, Ivan Tighe cam, 5 spd SSS stanza box and SSS stanza 4.375:1 diff (but the engine and box is going into another car and will have 3.90:1 diff)   thanks guys 'n' gals   Dave --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.datascribe.com.au/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.datascribe.com.au/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.datascribe.com.au/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.datascribe.com.au/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
