Please view the post in the Forum Support forum, it has a poll about making a dark mode (i.e. dark color screens instead of bright white) available. This can be of interest for those that access the forums from a mobile device as dark screens use less battery power. But we need to know whether enough people want this before investing the time to install an extra mode.

Hi,
a friend of mine wants to have the 3 carburetors of his 1958 Eldorado Biarritz rebuilt.
Can anybody recommend a really good qualified company who could perform this rebuild for him?
Any experiences you made?

Thanks for any tips!

Gerald,

I rebuilt the tri power on my 1960. When I purchased the car, the secondary carbs did not function at all. I had to have my vacuum diaphragm rebuilt and had to clean out the vacuum switch.

I had the center carb rebuilt as well. The car runs and performs as it is supposed to.

The proper condition of the diaphragm and vacuum switch is crucial and adjusting the linkage and its relation to the vacuum switch makes a big difference.

I can get the carbs done for you and have them completely rebuilt using modern kits and ship them back to you but the setup on the car will make all the difference.

Brian.

Custom Rebuilt Carbureators here in NJ. Ask for owner and tell them you are with Cadillac Club. He has done many 58-60 caddy tri powers. If you send him full set up with manifold he will fully rebuild and performance test and adjust so it works on install and all you to do is minor adjustments.

Looks great.  Shipping to and from Europe will be expensive but probably worth it.
