aussiebaja - February 16th, 2007 at 09:02 PM

hi guys ,,ive got a mechanic mate that reckons that if i put a different carb and freer flowing exhaust on my 1200 baja that it should make a big improvement on power ,im looking at making my own inlet manifold to suit or maybe duals ,,i was just wondering what you guys think what carbie i should use ,,and i know it would be easier to get a bigger motor but i cant find any that are any good and that are cheap enough ,,,,thanx guys

1600s go frequently for 500ish.

what carb has it got?

if its the 28 pict put a 30pict on it and see how that goes it should be a straight swap

thanx mate ,at least some one can tell me a straight answer without telling me to buy a bigger engine ,,ive got the 1200 in it i want to use it until it dies then i might go bigger ,,,,,,,,

I fitted a thunderbird 4 into 1 exhaust and a 36hp(28pci) carb with the venturi removed.
You might like to get the mixtures checked because it WILL need re-jetting.
