I'm Dave, and I have an 83 E21 3 series BMW with a 12A out of an 83 RX7. it's stock internally to the best of my knowledge, has all the emissions stuff and oil injection stuff removed, has ghetto mechanical secondaries on the carb, lengthened accelerator pump lever (still has a slight dead spot), manifold back exhaust, a trans from an 82 RX7, cutsom driveline with driveline adapter, and a whole bunch of other things. perhaps I'll put a build thread on here.

oh yea, I also recently adapted a GM 1 wire style 100 amp ford alternator on it.

I joined this site because I was hoping for more insights on the holley conversion I'm gearing up to do. I ordered a 465 cfm carb, and now that it's on the way, I've realized that I can't find much on what jets to order, and if I have to do anything else to it. I plan to call Racing beat on Monday if i get a chance for more info as well.


Anyways, here's the car:

The day I brought it home:

Lowered it with free universal coilovers before it even ran:

Huge fast forward:

and the engine bay all dirty with the new atlernator:

anyways, I look forward to exploring this forum and hopefully finding some of the answers I'll need for this car that has consumed my life.

Thanks.

since I feel like it, here's a pic of my holley carb mock up. It will look a bit different when it's fully installed soon, but it gives you an idea.

I also want to give a quick shout out to my friends at The FitGarage. They had a pretty good price on my holley.
