Questions re: Weber 44 IDF carbs:
1. Is anyone running these on a stock engine, and if so, how do they perform? National Carburetors kit for stock engines is 34 ICT's, lightly modified 40 IDF's, and only 44's on heavily modified engines. 2. What problems do you introduce using 44's? other than dumping too much fuel in the engine...... 3. Venturi's are 45mm, someone pointed out that one should use 40mm venturi's - is that with a stock engine? 4. Anyone run 44's and then convert back to EFI? How did that go? Labor cost? TIA, GN |

If I may suggest something:
http://www.allzim.com/store/356-efi-conversion-faq.html This is an EFI conversion kit for the 356 motor. It is a bolt on replacement for the stock carbs. I helped with some of the development of this kit. It will fit on a carbed 914 engine, but you won't be able to use the manifolds that come with it. The base map in the ECU would work for initial running. But you would have to tune it for your car. I have driven the first 356 with this kit. It starts great, idles smooth and pulls stronger than the carbed version of the exact same car. They have 3 running cars with the kit on them. Contact @partsguy22 . He is the person developing this kit for Zims. Clay |

Clay -
Is this for me? Did I miss something? Lost me on 356 engine. So will this EFI conversion work on my 2.0? Not sure what you mean by not using the manifolds that come with it......what manifolds would I use? I have original D-Jet manifolds and the manifolds for my 44's. Yes - I would be very interested. I can always sell a proven working D-Jet system for a 2.0 & use that for the EFI. Thanks!
