Help me understand cam timing, advancing or retarding a SOHC for mpg

Another tip for metro enthusiasts is to check out Suzuki Racing Development.

Now these parts are high $$$ but if that doesn't bother you and you want some awesome mod parts or just want to drool a little LOL, they sell aluminum pulleys, flywheels, high compression piston set, and lots of other cool stuff that will make your metro better.

Back to that discussion on cam timing if you are not lucky enough to have the early cam sprocket or do but want more adjustability SuzukiRD also sells an adjustable cam sproket for the G10.

I was going to give you the link but apparently you have to have 15 posts before that is aloud there site is easy enough to search though.

That was what I was planning with mine, but never did finish it. I also had made an adaptor to put 3 Mikuni carbs on it.

Motorcycle carburettors? I have already seen some makeshifts resorting to a single motorcycle carburettor on compact cars, but not as a performance trick. When it comes to the Metro/Swift, I don't remember any version from the '90s factory-fitted with a carburettor, at least none of the ones imported to my country.

Back when i was doing that, a 6pack of strombergs were the setup to beat for inline 6s. Mikuni were for rich extremely people. So why not?

They have also been used on "cheap" motorcycles

Yup had 4 on a honda 750. The variable venturi ones were bullet proof and very efficient for the times. Making the custom manifold was usually the expense

yes, I had 3 mikuni carburetors off some 350cc?? maybe single cylinder dirt bikes or quads. cant remember for sure its been to long. they seemed like a good option because they are super easy to re-jet and tune.
