side draft???

Is this a turbo or something??

a side draft carburetor lays flat instead of vertical, used on a lot of European cars

I believe he knows what it is for, He is asking what sort of setup you are going to be running it with :)

haha oh ok, figured it was a weird question, should have guessed !

it will be getting a turbo or jap supercharger, but the main buggy runners here use them mounted above the trans in theirs and get the best performance out of them then any IDA or IDF they have used so far so a 45 dcoe is my first choice

Sounds like fun! What size engine are you running :)

woooops... haha fixed now !

almost done building up a 2332cc as the good 1600 bogs down in the real soft stuff, which is 90% of what the buggy is in, so time for some more torque.

Sounds sweet. Let us know how you go :)
