Price: $329.99 Pros: good, easy installation and tune Cons: no product information on available jets Recommended? Yes
Comments: product is a direct bolt after market carb, instruction and fit are very straight forward. carb is very easy to adjust, and adds a noticable boost to any stock motor and can be upgraded to get the most out of anymotor improvements

Price: $400.00 Pros: easy to work on, parts readily available. It was new. I like the electric choke. Cons: Poor throttle spring linkage design. Encourages binding in both of 2 optional configurations. Recommended? Yes
Comments: I would recommend this because new parts for new parts the cost is comparable to the Carter BBD. The weber seems to have the edge in tunability. I like the electric choke. It was relatively easy to set up. I did have to adjust the spacers because they were not smooth on the mating surfaces. also the bores could use some modification as they are not a smooth transition either between them selves or the manifold. Easy fix with sand paper, emery cloth, and a dremal.
The throttle linkage wanted to bind in both of the 2 optional configurations. Also in the standard (use on the Jeep linkage) version the spring would not close the throttle fully.
I fixed the linkage problems by making my own adapter, works awesome now.

Price: $369.00 Pros: more power/better fuel economy Cons: none Recommended? Yes
Comments: love this carb!! big improvements in power and some improvements in fuel economy over the stock carb. highly recommended. installation instructions were good but be sure to label every hose as it comes off. you dont need a fuel regulator. just order a viton need and seat and change out the original before you install it. the viton needle and seat allows the weber carb to easily handle the slightly higher fuel pressure the stock pump puts out. if you get this carb you will not be dissapointed.

Price: $125.00 Pros: Easy to install and setup, got my idle back. Cons: none Recommended? Yes
Comments: I picked my kit up used off craigslist and was able to install it along with a Holley pressure regulator in an evening. The installation and setup instructions that I downloaded from the website were clear and concise and there was a noticeable improvement in throttle response. I coupled this with the Nutter bypass and my YJ runs great. I'm getting 17-18 mpg and I'm content with that. I would highly recommend this even at full price for anybody looking to replace there stock carb.

Price: $479.00 Pros: Noticeable HP gains. Design cleans up engine space. Reduces amount of vacuum lines. Better fuel mileage. Very easy to setup. Good instructions Cons: It's still a carburetor Recommended? Yes
Comments: With my old carter I could barely maintain 70 mph in 5th gear on the highway. With this carburetor upgrade alone I maintain 70 mph and then some. Even climbs light grades at speed without so much as a hiccup.
