Summary Recommendation
--------------------------------------------------
- Choose 32/36 DGEV for:

  * Smooth throttle control
  * Stock or lightly modified engines

• Choose 38 DGES for:
    * Maximum airflow and performance
    * Builds with cam, headers, or off-road needs

Notes: Always check your factory fuel system. The REDLINE only requires 2.5 to 3 Lbs. of fuel pressure. If you use an original style mechanical fuel pump you will be fine. If you use an electric fuel pump you may need to add a fuel pressure regulator to these systems.
The Weber carburetor when supplied in kit form from REDLINE is also pre-calibrated and pre-jetted for use on stock or slightly modified motors and will not be over carbureted. It also provides the best starting point for engines that are ultimately going to be upgraded with additional performance Items with performance over fuel economy being the ultimate goal. If you have significant upgrades to your engine a jet kit may be needed that we offer as well.
If you would like to use another air cleaner we do offer a plate conversion kit (99010-457) that allows you to use other air filters.
Your original cable operated linkage will work with this kit.  We offer the original cable is needed and a universal cable from Redline if needed (99006.103).
If you have a TH 400 automatic you will need to use a Lockar kick down for your kick down to operate properly.  You can fabricate a bracket to use the original Jeepster kick down if you have the ability/tools, otherwise purchase a Lockar kick down.
A snorkel kit is available if needed. This kit allows you to move the air filter to a remote location or above the water line for the tough river forge or just to get the filter out of the dust and mud zone into the passenger compartment or up on the roll bar. (99010.357)
