Weber Carb Kit Is your vintage Volvo a candidate for a Weber conversion? If you are experiencing problems with your original SU's or Strombergs, a Weber conversion could be a desirable solution. Our Weber kit is available with a manual choke or electric choke, (we recommend the manual choke for maximum control), however check with local emission laws before making this decision.
Both kits include a Weber DGV series carburetor (2 bbl progressive actuation), aluminum intake manifold, free flow air cleaner with cleanable element, prefabricated linkage, all necessary hoses and fittings, and complete instructions and troubleshooting information. Note - although Webers are shipped with jets, you will need to fine tune your new carburetor, using a jet kit for best results.
In California the CARB approved electric choke is required on all models subjected to emission testing. Please check fitment listed below to ensure products will fit your specific vehicle. Some products may include or exclude some model years or engine and transmission combinations. The products listed on our website are for Volvos sold in the North American market. Many of the parts are exactly the same as those used in other markets, however we cannot guarantee fitment for those markets.
ipd does not charge your credit card until the product actually ships from our warehouse.

Don't expect more power than the dual carbs. Do expect way, way, WAY less trouble. Tune it once and forget it for years at a time. Seriously. Once I got it dialed in, I didn't re-adjust it at all for 30,000 miles, no problem. Fuel economy is slightly better than well-tuned dual carbs, idling is smoother, pinging is eliminated (!) and the notorious Stromberg hot-start problem is eliminated. Emissions were cut more than in half. Power is similar around town and slightly less on the freeway, which was pretty much the only place the dual carbs really shined. (This package eliminates the cold-air intake that comes with dual carbs.) All these comparisons assume your dual carbs were well tuned, which seldom happens in real life. All told, this is not the all-out high-speed performance package, but it's a good, reliable, economical, sensible carb for a daily driver.
