2.0 8v questions.

[NovaJimmy]

Hope this is in right section.

Planning on fitting twin carbs to my nova.
Can anyone point me in the right direction of what dissy setup i can use?
Also what tank/pump to use??

Car is currently a 1984 12st going to fit my 20ne with seh pistons, kent cam/pully, port/polished head and hopefully twin carbs.
Are twin 40s ok or would 45s be better?
Any help appreciated.

Hi buddy 45s are perfect & use a facet pump & your tank wont need a return I'm sure someone will come along with what tank to use....

H&H are the people you want for a dissy & have a look on sbd site for loads of info.....................

40's will work, they will limit your peak power notionally to 150bhp but the sporty 2.0 8v was only 130 from factory anyway, but you will get a healthy dose of low end torque.
45's will be a better option and not limit power persay, but they maybe costlier to obtain.

I guess it all depends on what size chokes you opt for. 40's and 45's can be set up to run equally horrible if these things aren't considered.

For road use 40s would be better as they will give much better torque low down than 45s

Thanks for the replys.
Have tried looking for 45s not many about alot more 40s on ebay.
Will a 1.6 dissy work or will the advance curve be wrong?

The 1.6 dizzy will work with matching ignition amp and coil. As said before H+H can supply you a set up but they do pop up on eBay it's just knowing the correct bits to bid on.

They are different, not better or worse, just different.
You may find less support for them, but finding a good carb man is hard anyway
