What are your ambitions for the car? They might be sufficient to get around town, but for serious HP most engines use the Solex / Weber / Dellorto 40's. Of course it really depends on the "Combination".

Just sold a set of 34 solex carbs on ebay...went for a whopping $18 after a bidding war if that's any indication of value...unless of course you have manifolds and linkage already. |

The solex carbs were in a pile of extra parts. I have a set of 34 Weber ICTs with manifolds, linkage, etc, that eventually I'll be selling. I picked up a set of Weber 40s. |
