hey ive got a set of dellorto carbs im looking to sell and i am trying to find out what they are exactly and how much they would be worth.
there were a few numbers on the castings. these are
DRLA ( i figure that is the modle)
3012R i imagine the r stands for right side.
i measured the barrel throat of the carb and it was 1.758 ish or about 44.65 mm
ive got both carbs, the air filters with the crome tops, the linkage bar, and the intake runners that go between the head and the carbs. i looked on a site and the filters were around 22 a piece, the runners were around 100, and the linkage bar around sixty. ive seen them priced anywhere from 400 to 700 without the other pieces. im not sure of the conditoin of the carbs. they may need to be rebuilt.
any help on prices would be great and also if your intrested in buying them let me know too.
thanks andy

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) ...Well a few photographs could help...and a measurement ...AT THE BUTTERFLYS....not just at the throat would help. That said ,what I think you have is a set carbs that were designed and used primarily for the...356... porsche. They replaced the ZENITH ,stock, carburators...This was a complete kit with , carbs, manafolds, linkage, air cleaners, down arms, etc. The butterflys are 36mm. This was done to accomodate a small 1600 cc engine, low compression, and stock mild camshaft. They were as smooth as Zeniths, provided a little more power, easy to tune (usually came with the correct air and main jets) for street use...and were NEW. Obviously with newer technology(fuel/air mixing) compaired to Zeniths they ran great. They were NOT as good as a set of SOLEX 40P11,s .(on a uprated SC engine.)....My opinion is they would work ok in a stock 1700 cc engine, with a very slight main jet increase...1800, and 2000 cc engines will be down on power compaired to a WEBER 40. The dellotoro carburators are very good carburators, with features and functionality the weber does not have. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) murray
