Editing How to rebuild automotive carburetors

{{youcanedit}} ==Introduction== Sooner or later, every hotrodder runs into the steps of making induction and carburetion choices while building a performance engine. For some, it's a tough choice whether to buy a brand-new carburetor, or to find an old dirty one and rebuild it. While buying a new carburetor may be convenient, at $200 and up, the cost can be prohibitive for the budget-minded hotrodder. On the other hand, a brand-name carburetor rebuild kit may cost as little as $15, and the rebuilt carb, (if rebuilt correctly), will last many years to come. ==Where to start== Things to consider when choosing your first rebuild victim... *CFM, and how much do I '''need'''?
