I am hoping to get my 914 back on the road after a LONG absence. (20+ years)

I have to drop out my 2.4 engine due to a valve problem and plan on putting back in a stock rebuilt 2.0 engine (originally D-Jetronic).
I don't trust the old FI and will only have a couple of weeks from start top finish, so I was thinking of just putting on a set of carbs as an easy fix to get it running.

My big engine has a pair of Dellorto cabs that are already a bit too big even for the 2.4, and need to be rebuilt, so again not a good solution.

I am looking at either a Dual 40 IDF setup or maybe one of the dual single barrel carb setups.

Anyone have any good suggestions. Cost is a concern, so I will probably be looking at the Chinese carbs, EMPI or Webber copies.

Thanks in advance.
