Used in lots of drag racing, A dodge neon I know of ran 4 lectron 50mm carbs, 1 per cylinder and got 450hp at the crank out of the motor. Car ran low 10's with them. They have sizes starting at 30mm and going to 50mm in 2mm increments.

RE: Mikuni carbs - 10/31/2006 4:40:47 PM    michigan_313   Posts: 705 Joined: 2/24/2006 Status: offline you can use f2 swingarm, but 1. the f3 is slightly wider to accomodate 5 inch rim whereas f2 is 4.5 inches. 2. the f3 swingarm/rim combo allows use of up to 180 tire. 3. if you want to use wider tire, go with wider rim and swingarm, this will cause less handling issues. 4. not quite a direct replacement as some geometry issues will need to be addressed. 5. this swingarm stuff is posted elsewhere under a seperate post.
