Title: Bigger carb
Post by: markymarc on August 22, 2012, 11:04:16 AM

Hi guys,

I know this has been asked before but what is the best (bigger) carb to put on a 650cc air-cooled engine that is otherwise standard?

Something with a bit more go but and easy swap?

What problems am I likely to have ie manifold, cable connection, etc?

Many thanks

Mark

I went for the Dellorto FZD which is a bit pricy and it won't be the only mod on the engine, here's a clip of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MltHAKXH1Q&feature=youtu.be this was just a testrun, no seals between the head and the manifold, nor between the manifold and the carb, it revs much faster but as said before, changing only the carb won't bring much. I've also seen the Bis and the Panda carb on some A/C's, with or without the Panda head. Maybe Rusty's uncle can explain more. This topic has been covered so many times now, I think there should be a sticky on it.
