Question of the day:
Weber 45 DCOE or Dellorto 48?

Missed a deal on a Dellorto, 45 DCOE's are everywhere for a good price.

Also, swapping in an FB 3rd member is going to be more of a challenge than anticipated. The springs ride on the LCA's, instead of the axle tube. Also it has a panhard bar instead of a watt's linkage. Charles wants to strip the axle and transfer all the brackets to the FB axle tube. I guess there is no other way.

Measure twice, weld once I guess
