Best carby for 1600
The carby that is fitted to the 1600 twin port in my country buggy is a bit worse for wear. I have put a carby kit in it but the electric choke won't
work. There is another electrical conection to an idle cut off jet thet has been butchered also. I think thats what it is but not sure as I can't
find the exact modle any of the books I have.
Any way, what would be a good replacement???

True true.
Is it a stock 1600 engine?
All those suggestions are good. Just don't go for dual carbs if it is a stock 1600. It's expensive and performance seems to go downhill. Probably
because the throats are too big to make a decent vacuum.
When I got my poor old S, it had the carb from a 1200 if I remember correctly. It even had a special adaptor to convert it to the smaller size. I
still don't know why anyone would do that.
In all honesty, for a stock motor, I like the stock carb. The valves are the bottleneck in the 1600 anyway. It can't suck through much more because
of its asthma.
If at first you don't succeed. Build, build again.

It'a 1600 twin port.
So a 34 pic will work. Is it a webber? Does it have an electricly operated choke? What sort of $$$ are they new? or are they available second hand?

a 34 pic 2 is the stock carb of a 1302 and later, no it a solex yes is got the electric choke, my old man has a bucket of them cause due to a design
fault some, not all have a flat spot in them that can not be tuned out. i say go the 30 pic it seems to run better due to the better manifold vacum it
produces. but it needs an adaptor plate to run on the stock manifold
