I have dual Dellorto carbs on my 2.0 and I've had them tuned a few times by a shop by my house but I feel like it still doesn't have very great throttle response. Also, the carbs cough above 3,000 rpm and I'm getting popping out of the exhaust under deceleration. Any advice about what is going on with my carbs and any recommendations of shops in SoCal that do quality work on type 4s would be awesome!

Thanks in advance,

Jon

You might give Scotty a call at Steve's Machine down on Arrow Hwy. between Grand and Citrus. Been around for a long time. He rebuilt my 1.7 L up to a 2.0 L a couple of years ago. I've been happy with it and the price.

Good God Almighty. That's 3 914's in this one horse town. Winchester might possibly qualify as the city w/ the most 914's per capita. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
