which carbs are best?

im soon to be getting a 1.6 carb engine, im wanting to put cars on it but i dont know what there all about basically. im not sure which ones to put on because or the different cc carbs, how do they work, the bigger= the more fuel put through? i want it a little rich so it pops abit. help please?

The original Solex or Pieberg is the best - so long as its adjusted and working properly - because it has auto choke and in relative terms, is quite sophisticated.

Many people prefer the (single) Weber conversion, because its a relatively simple carb and also quite easily available, eg you can buy a 'kit' of a new carb and adapter, etc etc.

Next would be the multitude of twin carbs - adding the complication and expense of 2 carbs for a 75bhp engine is a bit daft but some people like the technical challenge of it. You have twice the adjustment capability, but half of them are needed to get the carbs sync'd together.

Then worst would be bike carbs. You're into fabricating or bodging your own manifold, and an even simpler carb that will have flat spots or cold running/warm up issues unless you thoroughly understand what's going on or pay a specialist to sort it all out for you.

Whatever you do, don't make the mistake of thinking that simply swapping a carb will magically give a useful jump in power - at least, without any downsides too.

right cheers, so dont put bike carbs on, i dont want webers on cos i cant afford it to be fair, i basically want some that will maybe give me a little more power and maybe spit some flames as childish as it sounds.
