Did any 914-6 engine come original with Zenith carbs?
When I look at the Porsche 914 Factory Parts Catalogue, it appears to list only two carburetor part numbers (left and right) which are 40 IDT Weber. We acquired an engine that is 914-6 correct number range, but has Zenith 40 TIN on it. Is there any chance they are correct? I'm guessing someone just didn't care about originality, and threw them on there. Thank you. |

Have dealt with that seller for Zenith parts from the get go,the service,shipping and quality is top notch,they make all the real hard parts now,my last purchase was a set of throttle lever cams,really well made. Last time I looked on there they had pretty much anything you need,while back I needed parts not listed and they supplied them. When all the parts for these dried up no one wanted them as about the only thing you could buy was the gasket sets (@ a price ), they earned a bad rep for this reason. |
