FUEL PUMP AROUND SYSTEM VS REG CARB

Jimmy, I should have said it more clearly. I was referring to Dellorto not needing PA system.

But I have tuned Keihin for friends and they run great with a tee in the line.

I don't know why the floats would be a quality issue with the Keihin. Smile

P.S. Jimmy,

I can build you a stock Honda with no 'trick' fuel system and you'll win just like always.

So, I would say the drivers get the credit there ey,,would not do as well with out the extra fuel venting? I think these were top drivers no matter the motor.

So if the ST Fuel system does not get more HP to the motor and it takes more then 13 hp just for a couple of tenths , were is the value for your buck? If 13HP does very little what will no more HP do.

Simple fact :We have more HP on the ground then we can use in the corners for forward momentum and adding more makes it harder to drive in corners and the tracks are 95%corners .That's why the top G1 and S4 guys had almost the same times.They were easier in the corners to drive.

50 HP with the G1 ICC against 37hp Spec Honda.With the HP difference they were only a few tenths faster??With the same driver.

13 hp difference, so is the extra $400.00 fuel systems worth the time you will not gain then go for it, help drive up the cost of karting till the motors are $8000.00 because $7000.00 is not high enough yet.

There should be a spec fuel flow system simple and free,no over flowing, no floats sticking,no cuting out and on and on.The few who say they have these problems have not done it right.Or are used to thmoddeded motors.

Put the Lower vent tube higher then the top of the carb,and it provides the over flow a place to go and the carb does nostarverv because it goes back in when needed, does not come out all over the kart or in a bottle.

Sorry guys, but I race and build motors as well as help everyone that comes around to the track,If its not broke don't fix it.
Its my hobby and I am trying to keep it around.
We cant let a simple Spec Motor get up to the cost of the Mod motors.

We will help anyone needing it so just call!

Why is everyone soooo negative of someone profiting? Do you go to work? Do you do you're job? Do you get paid? Swede tech puts in mad hours and does one hell of a job. Why shouldn't they get paid for endless testing and track support? Motorsports is NO different than any other hobby. If it's a hobby then you need to leave it at that. If you want to be good at your hobby you may have to spend a little more money than the other guy. Take golf for example. You can be on a course playing for $300 or less. If you want the best clubs you're gonna spend $1000-$5000 to play on the same course but have a slight advantage. You might even spend $40 for a box of the best balls to give you another slight advantage. The gravity feed system is just a bigger better ball. The motor is the best clubs you can buy. What this means is swede tech is great at golf!!

I live in central ca, am self employed and my business fell off 77% all at once in 2008. Everybody has a sob story of there own. I say f**k that!!! I weathered the storm kept a positive attitude and I'm now doing better than ever. Not once when I was down and out did I bi**h and complain about someone else having something or making money. Shame on you! Call 9 whah whah and they'll send the whambulence. If your not all money'd up do what you can do but don't "occupy" karting and try to prevent someone else from prospering Wink

All bs aside karting is awesome and if you haven't tested a product yourself don't knock it!
