A coworker, who didn’t know I was into 914 until we were at the bar tonight, tells me that there were 914-4 sold in the US that were factory equipped with carbs. He thought 70 or 71. I say no, only carbed 914 was the 914-6. Whose right? A $100 rides on this. After posting this I’m headed to the books! I could double my winnings from the Texas win, or break even… Michael
