WEBER 40 - 914-6 or 911T Carbs, They seem to be the correct carbs but not stock? Options

1970 914-6 all stock

All,

I am down to the last thing for this engine re-fresh: CARBS

They seem to be in very good condition and since they are missing the Porsche factory mark I am guessing that they were 'cored' on a rebuild sometime prior to my ownership

OR

Are 914-6 carbs NOT market like 911 carbs are???????

Anyway, I have not gone too deep since they are in great shape - the gaskets seem good, the floats are the brass kind but in perfect shape, the bowls are very clean,,,,,,

Can I get some direction on:

1. what to look for in a recently rebuilt carb
2. where is a good reference for setup prior to installation

Any other opinions would be well received,

Thank you Teeners


YES I KNOW

When I worked on the car 25 years ago (!) it had OEM 914 6 Webers.
When I bought the car 5 (?) ago it had those new replacement Webers.
I think the previous owner or his wife had the carbs replaced.

Hey Rory, they seemed to run way too rich but when I took one apart all is clean and new, too bad the originals were cored…..

Will recalibrate and see how it goes, thank you Rory
