anyone ever heard of dual carbs on a motor i was thinking that you might be able to use two weedwacker carbs as this would give more gas than a regualr carb but not so much more that it would flood the engine {the only problem that i can think of is that it might make the engine run too rich and stall} if this happens i think that i could use some sort of blower or small fan to add more air to the motor to counteract this but if i could make this work it would definately add tons of power compared to some other upgrades.

just a thought

if you somehow did this, you'd be my hero. :)

No, really, it's all about air+fuel. If you can get the air in there, maybe it would work... But it's beyond my talents to tune something like that.

if i wanted to do this it would probably have to be done in two pieces on a lathe and welded together and then have two blowers/fans one for each carb if i did it this way it might actually work but the only problem is i dont have a lathe

i was thinking about this and remembered that you can bolt two carbs together! and use a fan/blower of somesort to increase airflow so this might just be do able when i get another carb off a lawnmower or something
