Gene The Camper My camper has a new 1641cc engine but has the wrong carb (PICT 31) so he's going in to get a new carb (PICT 34) fitted next week. I'm thinking though that a twin port conversion would be a better modification. Can anyone give me a rough idea on how much this would cost and likely improvement on performance? Thanks, Rich.
I'm no expert but at a guess I'd say you'd need: Twinport heads Twinport inlet manifold New oil cooler stand and oil cooler Doghouse fanshround and the 2 tins that fit on the back of the doghouse Twinport cylinder tins New fan (doghouse fan is thicker) Anything else?
Nothing wrong with single port. The heads don't crack, slightly less power, but more torque than TP. I liked mine.
Do you mean twin port or twin carbs? A 1641 will surely have barrels and possibly heads that are twin port already? Just my thoughts....! Cheers Ben
Gene The Camper Okay - So Single Port will remain. Any tips on how I can get more out of it? Cheers, Rich.
What carbs and exhaust on a bog standard 1600 would help him. i.e the cheapest and easiest route to a tad more power. I wouldnt mind knowing either. Especially a zorst that retains the exchangers.
