Hey guys, I purchased an 1300 xflow engine off trademe a little while back that was "hotted up" I stripped it, cleaned everything made sure the rings, bearings were ok etc.. then reassembled and installed new gaskets. This is the work that has been done to it. Head: Ported and polished, oversized valves (same size as 3L essex I believe), double valve springs. Block: 25thou oversized pistons, lightened flywheel and rods. Kent 244 cam. I'm currently running the standard 1300 single barrel carb of my original 1300 just so I could drive it down from Tauranga to Blenheim. It's very gutless with the single barrel carb, so I would just like to get an idea of what would be an ideal carb to run on my setup? I was told it was running twin 40 DCOE's by the previous owner and it went well, but thats a bit out of my budget. So I was thinking just a 32/36 twin choke carb would do the trick.
Any help or tips on which carb setup I should use would be much appreciated. Thanks!
