Hey guys,
I'm in a bit of a bind here. I have the 34mm Dual Solex carbs on my 1679cc engine, with 041 MOFOCO heads and mild cam. Problem is the carbs came with 22mm vents which are to small so I ordered 28mm ones and was told by CB that those were to big for engine. (Having a terrible time tuning them).
Anyway, is there anyone in here the can open the 22mm ones up to say 24mm? |

there's nothing wrong with 28mm. 35PDSITs come with 27s and tune fine.
