I have an engine that started out 1600 cc but is now 1800, has dual solex carburetors. I also have 1300 cc stock engine. The bigger engine kind of appeals to me, but my friend advises that I will "constantly be fooling with it to balance the carbs". This is not a serious off-roader, just a "fun Buggy". Does anyone out there have an opinion on this? Is is difficult to tune the dual carbs, and once set, how often do they need to be re-aligned? I don't mind working on them every so often because the owner of a hot rod, from MOPAR to Mustang should know everything about his car. so does anybody hav an opinion about the "cool look VS the easy maintenance"idea?
