twin solex carbs
Wanting to know if running twin type3 solex carbs to suit a type 1 1300cc would be worth the difference in runnning the standard carb?
Thanks

two is better then one , as long as they are a good set.
That's why all new cars run multi point injection, then just a throttle body injector.
