just eying a few things up at the mo in the way of twin carbs, would something like this be good for my 1914 motor,



More information
Carburettor Kit, Twin, 44hpmx, Twin Port, Kit (Empi)

050.056.20 £449.50 Kit (Including VAT)

Wish list,



its a complete kit with everything i need, wondering if anyone knows if this would be a good one to go for mabey or do i need to rob more banks ?

dude, ive got a pair of dells for sale. refurbed 40's by mick at kerb side autos £250 but you will need to by the manifold linkage kit about £160 far far better carbs than the Empi kit!

I would say that Slammervan is right, go for good used stuff rather then the Empi tat.....

get the dells! i have twin 40s on mine, they are ace! and a doddle to set up and tune

would 40s be good like on my engine BHp wise ye,

Here you go, i was told re-jetted these would do a mild 2110cc or what ever that aircooled stuff works out to be.

Depends what heads you got, but will suit the 1914 lovely, need to change the venturis to either 34s or 36s, maybe the idles to a 60, and the mains to 145 or 150, cost about a ton from eurocarb, but i tuned mine in my garage with a emissions tester and a 4 gauge monometer and you seen what that goes like!!!!!

thiis is the thing lol, i dont have dosh for idles etc, i got this gunson gas exaust analyser, i should be able to use that to help me set it up, it gives me the co reading of the exhaust, yes yours certainly does go like stink al,

if i did go for the twisn i would proberly have to have it set up by a rollin road place as i dont have the slightist clue about carbs, all i know is twin carbs is the way foward and bigger in most cases is better , just depnds how much rolling road would cost me, i dunno about this no more turning expensive unless i put car of the road for a bit and save up .

cheers for the pics they look quite good,

Martin, you need to get the carbs jetted up properly or you will have even worse problems than you are having now.
Running lean can lead to it over heating.........there ain't no rush, just put some aside and do it when you can.

I had my 1914 with twin 40 dell's set up on the rolling road at TSR in bridgwater cost me £150..

Let me know when you want to get it done, I will talk to the guy who did mine...........if you jet them up and fit them yourself you won't end up with a bill like I had to pay, in theory you would just have to pay for the runs on the dyno and a bit of tweaking that will be needed.

well im considering these dells at the mo, are jets easy to fit, i can ft the carsb thats no problem, how do you guys kow what jets go in them, is just experience or a bit of guess work here and there, but as big all seaid it would be 100 on jets ect from eurocarbs , also would i need a different fan shroud to allow the carbs to fit on ? i got a standard Tp one on at the moment,

Big Al has a tuning book for Dells.
The jet size is dependent on the size of the valves you aare running in your heads.
Do a search on jetting Dells on Google dude.........or have a good chat with Big Al.
The jets simply unscrew and screw in..............you would also need to sort your venturis........
I would suggest doing plenty of homework.
