Currently have 44's that were just rebuilt, my experience is that 44's are a little big, and you need at least 2200 cc's of displacement to fully utilize the throatsize.
What's your experience/advice/opinion? |

You need the velocity and vacuum for Weber’s to work correctly. If you think of it, a 2.0 liter 914 has the same displacement per cylinder as a 911SC, so most of the tuning should be similar. Red Paul Abbot’s excellent explanation on weber carbs at his Performance Oriented site. It should be required reading before anyone takes on playing with carbs.
BTW, if you’re using a stock cam, the original fuel injection system will probably run better than the carbs (though it doesn’t sound as nice). |
