What bike carbs for a 2ltr Pinto
 

I now have a donor with a 2ltr pinto, fuel injected. I would like to put bike carbs on it. Has anyone got any idea of what carbs would be good and any possible problems that may arise please.:rolleyes:

John,

Having spent alllllllll day at the rolling road place when Ash was getting his Carbs set up, the underlying advise was get a set of carbs that produce the same(ish) or slightly more horse power than the engine.

I initially thought it was more about the capacity of the engine the carbs came off but Ash’s 1.6 pinto has 600cc carbs.

I have a 1.8 CVH with 750cc carbs.

Hope that helps a little.

Cheers Ginge

Cheers for that ginge, you learn something new every day.

This wont be much help to you, but it could be to someone else in the future. For a 1.8 Zetec engine I've been told ZX9R carbs work well with the engine, this is without a rolling road session.

This proves ginge's point as the 1.8 zetec is supposed to put out 145bhp and the ZX9R carbs are from an engine which puts out 144bhp....:D
