Hey everyone, mind the "noob" undertone of this post Haha.
Interested in buying these Matsuoka carbs for my ute because a) want more power because stupid teen on L's, and b) because they are $1k cheaper roughly than Keihin FCH carbs.
Q1- Is there an australian importer of them or do I need to find a person to import them for me from Japan?
Q2- When they say "Manifold can be any DCOE (Weber/Dellorto/Solex) type", what links the carbs to the manifold in this case? hose clamps and tubing or are bolt patterns right enough to bolt in?
Q3- How hard is it to link up i.e. from pedal to the linkages. Are there any special parts I need or do I need to change the end of the throttle cable/buy a longer one to fit the MSR's
Q4- How hard are they to tune, I've heard a lot about Dellorto's being pains to tune and whatnot, will I run into the same difficulty tuning these?
Q5- Ok getting super noob, what jetting do I run for it (see bottom of post for engine w/ mods its going on)?
Thats about it for now, no doubt I'll need to come back incase I run into any problems.
At the moment their going on a fairly stock A12 (extractors, bored out to 1270cc, elec ignition, full overhaul), but I am planning to swap an A15 into it at some stage in the future (just switch the head over and keep all my built up work).
Thanks in advance, if I get a good response I'll add this into Techwiki for future reference, because I know I won't be the only one struggling to find answers :P
