cheap mods for better acceleration?

Do a Weber Carb 32-36 DG series conversion. You can get the carb on Ebay for probably <$100. Then you can order the adapter plate separately. There are a few guys on the board who have done this. Someone with a few more details please respond

advance your distributor
make secondary conversion, flip the lid.
Alex.
How do you advance your distributor? And I do have a flipped lid.but that really didn't do a whole lot. I was thinking about getting a weber but I wanted to make a air intake first.
is there more documentation of this secondary conversion? i'm guessing it opens somthing up prematurely right?..i'm not good with carbs though :-(
Yeah what is secondary conversion?
Accel coil new wires over gap your NGK plugs
try putting on a lxi exshaust maniflod and flexpipe
lxi exaust manifold helps? how??
ok here is the picture.
and can some one putt this one in HOW TO section.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE.
If you need more questions about secondary conversion visit carb technical section.

Well I know the 86 87 have a 4-1 manafold but the 88-89 have a 4-2-1 but that might only be LXi I do not knowOriginally posted by Mantis88LX
lxi exaust manifold helps? how??
i have a 88 lx, so if i got a exaust manifold from a 89 lxi it would help performance??
I am not too sure check and see if you have an 4-1 design or 4-2-1
Yes I think you should gain some horsepower, the lxi has runners more like headers,and flows better,a low buget hp gain.But you need flexpipe also.Boneyard looks good.
would i need a new exaust manifold gasket? or could i reuse my old one? sorry i have no experience with exaust manifolds,
this is a mod i AM going to do soon, i will be sure to post results
I never done it its just a idea,experiment. There maybe problems with those pollution piping bull. Plus with the 0-2 sensers. Dx only has 1 and lxi has 2...But I'll say the lxi sure looks more free flowing. Won't cost much.
well the pollution pipping shit is no problem since i would just rmove all that shit if i got the lxi manifold and the second o2 senser i can get a guy at my local muffler shop to weld that hole up for a few bucks.
so i would need the lxi manifold and flew pipe? will all that just bolt to the cat with no problems?
so are the lxi manifolds the 4-2-1 desighn?
yes, and just plug the extra 02 sensor port

and the lx's are just 4-1 right?
and do i need the lxi flex pipe?
LX is 4-1, pacesetter made 4-1 lx manifolds but somewhere along the line dumped the idea.
Not sure on the flex pipe... but it couldn't hurt to pull one off the same time you pull the header.

4-2-1 is better tho right?
It has it's advantages, like more torque or something... but if I make my custom header it's gonna be 4-1.
