My car came with a fuel injection conversion to a Weber downdraft—I need to order a rebuild kit but not sure which version of the carb this is. Anyone recognize it?Attached Image

Finally had some time today to install the kit I got off of eBay...holy crap what a difference!!! The old kit that was in there had broken gaskets and everything was loose.
I ordered the correct jets needed to adjust them a little more, but in the meantime the pickup, throttle response and sound are absolutely incredible. It also starts so much easier now too

Just a suggestion, I see you are on the right coast. They make a 914-6 hand throttle kit. When it's cold you can bring up the idle for warm up and not have to keep a foot on the throttle.
