I have a 1.8 carb engine that I want to hear run soon, maybe over the holi-daze.
What would you use ? The 34 ICTS seem to be a tidy set up that would allow some much needed room under the hood. But.....I hear they are a pain the ass to tune - I feel froggy. The Weber really has a bad name but there sure are a bunch of them out there and ease of tuning, parts, etc. Wadda think? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) |

I agree with the suggestion to go with the ICT's, but having "dual" progressives actually solves most of the problems they are known for on 914's. I've got electric chokes, and for the most part you wouldn't have any idea you were running carbs. The only issues I've had were going to higher elevation in Moab for the Red Rock Classic. I've got my idle rpm set pretty low in vegas, but up there, the fat mixture had me down to 400 rpms or so. When I got back down here, the idle jumped back up, and I haven't touched it since. I'm guessing very few kits were made to put dual progressives in a 914.
