djmtsu will become famous soon enough
Yowza. $450 for the full package though.

I have 2 Nikki's right now, a 1979 and a 1984. Which one should I modify? Both run great right now. I have heard the venturies are larger in the 79, but have not actually checked myself.

the Venturi's are the same.

the 79-80 carb has a better looking top, but it actually flows less than the 81-85.

the 81-85 has an idle mixture screw only, where the 79-80 has an air bleed also (idle fuel and idle air are both adjustable), which is nice if you have a port.

other than that its basically the same carb.
