I'm new to the porsche game. I have a 73 with a 1.7l. It all was in a box. I've had experience with Type 1 bug motors but not 4. I have bought the weber progressive carb kit, planning on ordering the svda 034 from hotspark. Is the camshaft a big issue since it was an injected motor? Any info will help. Thanks.

I couldn't run wide open throttle since all it did was blow out black smoke (inefficient combustion).
Something else was wrong with your car if this happened, not the carb.
Someone else posted fuel dripping down by heads. Must have forgot gaskets? or using wrong fuel pump.
flat spot bog down as the secondary opens. No flat spots on either of mine? Its called tuning your engine.
