Jake, question about Dellorto carbs on a 914.
Jake,
I listened to what you said on the show about the responsiveness of Dellorto carbs, and I think that is what I am looking for for my street 914. But I couldn't remember if you gave the name of the guy who refurbishes them, or if he has an Ebay ID. I plan on doing your 2056 kit for my 914, what size of carbs should I keep my eye out for? Is a Dellorto 40 comparable to a Weber 40?

The bolt pattern is the same between IDF & DRLA 40mm to 48mm, but 40mm carbs will only work properly on 40mm manifolds, 44 or 45mm carbs won't work well on 40mm manifolds, you need the proper manifold size to match the carb.

Thomas,
The guy in Europe Jake is referring to EBAY id is Alfa1750. Look up ebay item number 8021257314, that will get you in the right place. He is a great guy, I have purhcased from him and they are great and he is a great help as well. I have even sent him sets to rebuild, because I don't have all the tools to do some of the work, if they are in bad shape to start with and he always returns a good as new product.
He only charges me $50 to rebuild a carb. Shipping is $76 each way if you want them in hurry.
