Carburetor question

Is it possibly I will gain back any power from my new weber carb? I purchased the 32/36 dgev model. I have the stock 4.10 gears and Ive heard i should have no trouble at all pulling a set of 32X11.50's. its just sluggish right now on 225/75's, looking for answers.

The more gas/air flow you can get the more power your going to get. every little bit helps. Doing the exhaust will help to. If you ever pull the head off port the holes on the exhaust and intake and match them on the head. But over all I think regearing will help the most power wise

Exhaust has already been redone from the cat back if that helps any. Over all the truck has not had a hard life, dosnt even have 150,000 yet and its 25 years old.

I think it will help. As long as you can get it jetted right and everything. Will it fit on the intake or do you have to modify it. I dont know much about the carbed yotas

This one came with a new filter air filter and everything in the box. Its a smaller chrome rectangle shaped one. Not sure how that's going to work out, guess ill find out soon enough. Id like to keep the old intake since it has that somewhat factory cold air intake design.

Have you been on wabfab? They have alot of good stuff. like 2 inch lifts that would be perfect for your yota for the tires you want
