My 74 2.0 has these duel Dellorto's, who can tell me how to Identify what size they are, I'd like to have kits for them on hand just in case I need them when its time to fire this baby up.

It will be stamped on the base of carbs. It should say something like DRLA 40 or DRLA 45 or DRLA 36. I have the 45's and had the 40's before that. They were both the same. Look towards the base of the carbs.

Yep should be stamped in the base probably on the "outboard" side. Is that red silicone?

I've sure used a ton of the stuff over the years, you can't build a small block Chevy without it....well if you don't want leaks that is

Huh?
does your throttle cable PUSH on the linkage. ..?Or are the carbs on inside out?
Seem's like a 'pull' from your throttle cable shuts the carbs....or they're on lefthanded?!
It's one of those "magic eye" things eh?
I'll see the answer if I stare long enough.

p.s. Get you rebuild kits now!!! They're seeming to be hard to find (at a normal price).

The throttle arms are on the inside, so it pulls them up to open.

Funny, when I put my Webers on, I thought I was doing something really cheesy running a big return spring from the center arm back to the trunk spring. Now I see nearly everyone does the same thing....
