    If I'm in Poland I'll look you up! I have many Polish friends here in Nova Scotia so we should get on well. Keep throwing out questions and all of us on the forum will do our best to help.

    Here is a Lada racing build with delorto side drafts that may have useful info. Here is a carb bage from the thread: http://forums.finalgear.com/post-your-car/my-lada-2107-racecar-project-5986/page-15/#post856061

    The carb internals seem ok for 1.6 litre. The 50F8 idle jet could be made a bit leaner 50F11 if it runs rich at cruise. 29mm fuel height is a good initial target. The 115-F11-150 should also be ok for a starting point. The 32mm main choke could be dropped to 30 or even 28 to give you more low end. Before tuning the carb you need the cam and rocker sorted as well as measure timing. Here is a great page that goes over tuning webers: Weber DCOE triples, L28s, and Datsun Zcars

    I thought Z's worked best with slightly wider track in the front? Also I read that same tire sizes are best? Any insight?

    Welcome Hubert! What are the internal component sizes (jets, choke (venturi), air correctors, emulsion tube)? What is your fuel level? Do you have a way of balancing air flow?

  8. I always say that when you drive a Z for a while you can smell how fast you are going.

    John, What size wheels are on that Z? I have a set of similar BBS-RS 15" that are 12" wide. I need an outer lip 6-5/8" to make a set as 1 is missing a chunk o' aluminum.

    Most of those plugs look rich with black soot.

    If it is fuel injected, and siteunseen's great advice of checking for a spark shows a good spark then try swapping the #6 injector lead and # 5 injector lead. If the problem is with an electrical connection then it will show by swapping. If your car has EFI then clean all electrical connections: http://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/electricalconnections/index.html

  18. WOW fantastic! Love the shots. I forgot to mention that the fingering AFM measurments we did could be on the rich side to please mark the current spot and tighten the spring as required. Next time out I'll bring my O2 sniffer so that we can baseline and optimize
