i have an 85

and iv heard of people using weber side drafts but that seems to be the expensive way

what other easy intake swaps are common? or other carbs?

there are some weber downdraft carbs that work great... lots cheaper than the side draftsthe 32/36 is a common 'quick replacement'

how are thay price wise?

is that what your running?

i'm still running stock... i just happen to be lucky and mine runs way better than most

price wise... not bad... i think 200 will get ya a decent one that might need some cleaning/rebuild

the 32/36 is not what i would be running tho... its mainly for those who don't have or plan to do a lot of work... its great until you start doin internal work then you'd want something bigger

well i found a carb in the back of the truck in a box im pretty sure it goes to this truck and it looks fairly new i just dont really know what im doing when it comes to carbs ill post pics of that today and hopefully some one can identify it for me

maybe if its worthy ill get some help putting it in

Hopefully its not the stock hitachi but something better.

We'll find out.

lol... all the hatin' on the hitachi

i guess mine is the anti-lemon version

now yes... it'll still run better once i get my fuel system redone with a temporary weber... but still i have no real complaints with the hachi

so heres the other carb dont know what it is





and heres the semi cleaned engine back need to go to the junk yard for some parts this weekend

and heres my progress on the front, ditched the front bumper cause it was nasty and going to repaint the grille black and the trim around the corner lights and probably go yellow with the hibeams

that carb appears to be the stock one... i'm pretty sure

dude, do yourself a favor and stay the hell away from that hitachi, its garbage, a TBI unit is just as bad as far as performance although it is pretty efficient and somewhat reliable, it went with a weber 36/36 on my 720, and it made a huge difference it performance, although MPG's went down considerably( from 24 mpg to about 16) but i think with some more tuning i can get it around 20. im running 31x10.5 m/t's though. i got my carb new from weber for 279.99 and thats with the whole conversion kit. you wont regret it
